The new contract will see the vessel, a CSV built in 2000 with a 50t crane and offering diving service capacities, continue with its current client, Total Energies, in Argentina for a period of three years, with two further one-year extension options. The new contract will be effective from January 2026.

Mons Aase, DOF Group ASA CEO, said: “We are looking forward to continuing our support of Total Energies in Argentina with Skandi Patagonia, a vessel which has been operating in the same region with the same client since it was delivered from the yard in 2000. This contract is a testament to our successful collaboration and shows that a well-maintained vessel can extend the useful lifetime and provide attractive returns.”
