Aberdeen-based Specialist Subsea Services (S3), a provider of ROVs and survey services to the oil and gas and renewable industries, has signed a charter with EDT Offshore for the EDT Hercules vessel.

The three year agreement, which comes with two additional one year extension options, will allow S3 to provide its full scope of ROV, survey and life of field services from the vessel, strengthening its integrated offering.

Launched in 2013, the EDT Hercules is nearly 90m in length and has a deck load of 2,300t. With accommodation space for 71 people on-board including crew, the DP2 vessel will play a key role in the subsea specialist’s growth throughout the next three years as it looks to build on its extensive operations, both in the North Sea and emerging global regions.
