DOF Group, a Norwegian vessel owner, has secured a new contract in the Asia Pacific (APAC) region for mooring hook-up services.
The contract scope includes DOF’s complete suite of in-house services, such as project management, engineering, procurement, and logistics support. For this project, the Skandi Hercules, a 109.6-meter vessel, will be utilised for mooring and subsea installation services.
Offshore execution is scheduled for the first quarter of 2026, with an estimated vessel utilisation of around four weeks. The total contract value is capped at $15 million, which DOF classifies as a smaller-sized contract.
The Skandi Hercules had previously provided similar services offshore West Australia. In addition to this contract, DOF Group recently announced a long-term commitment in the APAC region. This commitment involves a construction support vessel (CSV) for subsea construction, inspection, repair, and maintenance (IRM), as well as remotely operated vehicle (ROV) services for depths of up to 3,000 metres. The contract, awarded by an international operator, is set to commence in January 2026 for a one-year duration, with options for further extensions.
This new contract reinforces DOF’s growing presence and capabilities in the APAC market.
