Bart Heijermans, Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer, commented, "We are delighted to add this important international contract to the burgeoning backlog we announced with our Q2 financial results. Visibility of deepwater construction work is excellent and this award further demonstrates our ability to secure work in each of our target markets, Gulf of Mexico, North Sea UK, offshore Norway and the Far East. Our pipelay fleet of the Intrepid, Express and Caesar is the right size and has the balance of complimentary capabilities to add value for both external customers and, our internal customer, Energy Resource Technology in this very exciting period for deepwater activity."
