Nexans Norway and IKM Subsea have come to an agreement to extend the current ROV services contracts on board the C/S Nexans Skagerrak

The contract value including options is NOK 75 million and duration term is firm for three years plus two yearly options.

IKM Subsea’s ROV services will be integrated with iSurvey’s positioning and monitoring service during cable lay and trenching operations.

“I am pleased to announce the news of this long term contract in these challenging times. This enables us to further develop our capabilities within the subsea power cable lay market. We have had an excellent working relationship with Nexans Norway over the last 3.5 years and the fact that they are extending the contract by five years is a testament to the quality of service we have supplied,” says Ben Pollard, managing director of IKM Subsea.

Since 2012, IKM Subsea has supplied a Merlin WR200 Work class ROV’s onboard on the C/S Nexans Skagerrak and had in addition supplied the ROVs with personnel and other related services.
