Wedoany.com Report-Nov 25,  Equinor has awarded DeepOcean an eight-year subsea inspection, maintenance and repair (IMR) contract to support its operations in Norway and elsewhere in Europe, starting from 2027.

DeepOcean will allocate a large team of subsea engineers, a subsea tool pool, remote operations technologies, and a newbuild vessel that the company will charter a vessel from Rem Offshore.

The Rem Ocean will have dual-fuel engines that can operate on bio-methanol and biodiesel as well as a battery energy storage system and regenerative energy systems.

Olaf Hansen, managing director with DeepOcean Europe, said, “The vessel, which will serve as a platform for the contract, is projected to achieve a 90% reduction in emissions when operating on bio-methanol and a 30% reduction when using conventional fuels compared to existing IMR vessels. Additionally, it will be optimized for remote operations, facilitating a reduced need for marine and project crews offshore.”
