Seasonal Recovery

“Our Well Intervention business benefited from seasonal recovery in the North Sea and continued operational improvements in Brazil. Our robotics business has improved quarter over quarter, with increased trenching operations and backlog for the remainder of 2018. We are encouraged by the improvements in our results compared to the last quarter and remain committed to managing the uncertainties that this market may present in the second half of the year.”
