DOF Secures ROV Work in Brazil

DOF ASA said its subsidiary DOF Subsea has been awarded two new contracts by Petrobras in Brazil for remotely operated vehicles (ROV) to be installed on board Skandi Angra and Skandi Paraty.

 
The new contracts commence in April 2018 and end in September and November 2020, respectively.
 
Additionally, Petrobras has extended two contracts for the ROVs on board Skandi Iguacu and Skandi Urca until the end of 2018.
 
The new contracts and contract extensions add 1,630 days of ROV services for DOF Subsea and increase the backlog by approximately NOK 200 million ($24.7 million).
