Result from bondholders' meetings Reference is made to the summons to bondholders' meetings in DOFSUB07 (ISIN NO 001 0670144), DOFSUB08 (ISIN NO 001 078817.7) and DOFSUB09 (ISIN NO 001 083681.0) issued dated
Update on tender activities
There has been a sharp decline in the tender activities, with few new contract opportunities and less projects to bid for. Due to the sharp decline in the oil price, the oil companies have reduced their exploration activity substantially and some have also started to reduce existing production. It must be expected that the Group will continue to experience adverse consequences of the sharp decline in the oil price, and the responses of the oil companies to such decline. Several of the Group's vessels will finish their firm contract periods during 2020, and if the challenging market continues most of these vessels could move into lay-up.
On the positive side, DOF is pleased to announce that Equinor Energy has awarded Skandi Vega a new contract. The vessel is owned by DOF Rederi. The duration of the contract is 6 months firm, with up to 6 months option.
Due to the developments after the announcement of the financial report of the Group for the 4th quarter 2019, the expectations regarding EBITDA for 2020 expressed therein will no longer apply. It is currently too early to express any view on the expected EBITDA for 2020 in light of the changed environment.
