This contract is the third contract in a short period of time between ProSafe and Halliburton under the participation agreement which was concluded between the companies earlier this year covering subsea construction support with the MSV Regalia.
ProSafe views this contract award as yet another confirmation of the unique qualities of the MSV Regalia under harsh weather conditions, and has therefore an optimistic view of the possibility of getting more short term jobs even during the winter season.
