Island Offshore, a Norwegian owner of offshore support vessels, announced that it has secured a contract for its platform supply vessel, the MV Island Challenger. Island Challenger will complete her present charter with Statoil Petroleum AS in September 2013, where she has been a part of Statoil’s PSV pool since she delivered from the yard in 2007. MV Island Challenger has been entrusted with a 5 years firm charter by Talisman Energy Norge AS. The contract will commence in November 2013 after a short upgrade of the vessel in direct continuation of the present charter. “This will be the first term contract between Island Offshore and Talisman, and we look forward the cooperation with Talisman. We are confident that the vessel and her experienced crew will contribute in a safe and efficient operation,” said Island Offshore in a statement. The ship owner did not disclose financial details of the agreement.
