Recent highlights


Fleet utilisation and financial results

  • Book equity improved by 36% from last quarter

Operations and commercial

  • 5 out of 7 vessels were in full operation throughout the quarter, while Safe Boreas was working part of the quarter
  • Good operating performance and zero incidents in the quarter
  • Two four-year contracts were awarded by Petrobras to Safe Notos and Safe Eurus, and a short duration contract was secured for Safe Boreas in the UK, adding approximately USD 240 million in backlog
  • After the quarter end, BP Trinidad and Tobago LLC exercised all four weeks of options for the Safe Concordia

Jesper K. Andresen, Prosafe’s CEO says, “The second quarter saw the highest vessel utilisation since 2015, which reflected positively on our performance. We were also pleased to secure significant backlog by winning important contracts in Brazil and the UK at improving margins. This is an indication of an improving outlook for the oil and gas industry and for our services. Finally, I would like to thank our team for continuing to operate safely and efficiently.”
