In addition, the Group has secured a variation order, under the Vyborg contract, generating additional sailing days during the first half. Total revenues for the various commitments are expected to reach approximately USD 40 million.
André Goedée, Chief Executive, Dockwise Ltd., said:
"A stable oil price environment and stronger macroeconomic outlook has coincided with increased tender activity amongst drilling rig contractors, creating opportunities for Dockwise. While the return of tender activity is encouraging, we have yet to see whether this constitutes the beginning of a sustained recovery."
