Norway’s Solstad Maritime has secured a contract extension for one of its construction support vessels (CSVs) with DeepOcean.
The one-year contract extension for the CSV Normand Ocean commences on January 1, 2026, in direct continuation of the current contract.
The vessel will begin a firm contract with Italian cabling company Prysmian during the first or second quarter of 2027 and run until 2032, with an additional two-year option.
Built in 2014, Normand Ocean is an advanced DP2 subsea construction vessel equipped with a 150-ton active heave-compensated subsea crane.
The 107-meter-long vessel is owned by Solstad Maritime, in which Solstad Offshore holds an ownership share of 27,3%.
Solstad last month secured another contract with Brazilian oil & gas company Petrobras for the CSV Normand Commander.
