Norwegian Vessels Will Strengthen Submarine Operations in Brazilian Waters Throughout 2025

The Norwegian DOF Group announced new contracts for its support vessels Skandi Achiever and Skandi Salvador in Brazilian waters. The agreements involve strategic underwater infrastructure operations, reinforcing the company’s presence in the national offshore market.

New Contracts Boost Skandi Achiever and Skandi Salvador

DOF, a company specialized in offshore solutions, will operate at full strength in Brazil in 2025. The company confirmed the hiring of Skandi Achiever for a SURF-type project, an acronym for a complex underwater system of umbilicals, risers, and pipes, starting already in May. There will be three distinct campaigns throughout the year, all in Brazilian waters. According to Offshore Energy, the vessel is considered versatile, measuring 105.9 meters in length and capable of accommodating 100 crew members, and is prepared to face severe maritime conditions.

Meanwhile, the Skandi Salvador, built in 2009, has had its contract with Subsea7 extended until July 2025, with an option for renewal. This vessel will continue to operate on similar projects to the Achiever, maintaining an active rhythm in submarine operations carried out in the country. The Salvador has a gross tonnage of 3,600 tons and remains a key player in DOF’s activities in Brazilian territory, especially in the installation and maintenance of underwater equipment.
