Glomar Offshore announced the purchase of the 2008 built Bourbon Arethuse and the 2009 built Bourbon Amilcar Subsea Support vessels, which are to be renamed Glomar Worker and Glomar Supporter, respectively.

After modifications and upgrades in our yard in Gdynia, Poland (Globaltic Marine), they will be dedicated to serving Glomar Offshore's O&G and Renewables clients in the North Sea and Baltic on Subsea- and Survey projects.

In addition, and in line with their modernization programme, Glomar Offshore reported that upgrades on their recently acquired Minkar, Situla and Shaula (ex Halul 10, 11 and 12, all 2002 built) are proceeding and the vessels are expected to be ready to trade by Q3, 2019.

The vessels are to be certified as NOGEPA standby units, serving their Dutch O&G clients for the years to come.
