Oceaneering signs offshore vessel services agreement for Gulf of Mexico
Energy services company Oceaneering International’s offshore projects group (OPG) has entered into a vessel services agreement with a major operator for the multipurpose support vessel Harvey Deep Sea, which will be used for subsea services in the Gulf of Mexico.
The vessel is presently chartered by Oceaneering through February 2027 and is equipped with two Oceaneering Millennium work-class remotely operated vehicles (ROVs).
The operator plans to use the vessel for subsea inspection, maintenance, repair (IMR) and installation services.
OPG senior vice-president Chris Dyer said: “This award not only secures vessel backlog in the region but also allows us to optimise our equipment spreads and reduce scheduling uncertainty.
“We look forward to delivering critical subsea IMR and installation services to create value for our customer and further demonstrate our commitment to project execution that delivers safe, efficient and high-quality results.”
This month, Oceaneering International announced a chief financial officer (CFO) succession plan.
Alan R. Curtis, who has served as CFO since 2015, will retire on 1 January 2026.
Curtis has been with Oceaneering since 1995, starting as a financial controller.
Michael W. Sumruld will join the company as senior vice-president of finance on 1 September 2025, with the expectation he will succeed Curtis as CFO upon his retirement.
Curtis will assist in an advisory capacity to ensure a smooth transition, reporting to president and chief executive officer Rod Larson.
Last year, in August, Oceaneering International’s UK subsidiary won multiple contracts for North Sea vessel services.
These contracts, awarded by various operators in the UK sector of the North Sea, include a range of offshore services such as decommissioning, inspection, subsea preparation and installation support.
