On Oct. 18, Global Maritime Consultancy & Engineering received a global master services agreement (MSA) from Statoil ASA (NYSE: STO) for platform technology studies, safety studies, marine verification and warranty surveys.

This MSA replaces several previous frame agreements between Statoil and Global Maritime.

Global Maritime has previously provided services for Statoil’s fields on the Norwegian Continental Shelf and elsewhere. Most recently, Global Maritime disconnected and towed the Njord A semisubmersible floating production platform from the Njord Field to an onshore maintenance facility.

Global Maritime Consultancy & Engineering is based in Stavanger, Norway.
