DeepOcean awarded a five-year contract extension in Mexico
DeepOcean has been awarded a contract extension with Diavaz for the Arbol Grande vessel, which will work on Inspection Maintenance and Repair (IMR) services in Mexico for the next five years. Operations will be managed out of DeepOcean’s office in Ciudad del Carmen, Mexico.
Arbol Grande is a 2003 construction and subsea vessel that has been used as an accommodation and topside maintenance support vessel for several IMR contracts involving saturation- and air-diving, as well as other light construction support operations.
“We are very pleased to continue the relationship with Diavaz and committing Arbol Grande on a longer-term contract. The vessel has proven capabilities that fit very well for the southern part of Gulf of Mexico,” says Tony Stokes, Managing Director, DeepOcean Americas.
Arbol Grande is owned by DeepOcean and is part of an overall fleet of 17 vessels. The Mexican-flagged vessel has a built-in accommodation for 199 people and a 60Te constant tension crane, in addition to a secondary 60Te telescopic crane.
