Haugesund, 20 February 2025: Reach Subsea, in partnership with Eidesvik Offshore
and Agalas, has signed a contract for a new, modern IMR/Survey vessel. The
vessel will be jointly owned, with Reach Subsea holding a one-third stake and an
entity owned by Eidesvik and Agalas, controlled by Eidesvik, holding the
remaining two-thirds. The vessel is scheduled for delivery in spring 2027. Reach
Subsea's equity investment will be financed through existing cash reserves and
operational cash flow. Additionally, Reach Subsea has signed a five-year charter
for the vessel, with options for two one-year extensions, starting upon
delivery. Eidesvik will manage the vessel.

«Vessel capacity for long-term growth is crucial for us. While long-term charter
agreements remain our primary business model, we recognize the significant value
in establishing co-ownership of key assets to support our long-term strategy.»
says Jostein Alendal, CEO of Reach Subsea.

In November 2023 Reach Subsea announced a long-term charter contract for a
similar IMR/Survey vessel owned by Eidesvik and Agalas with planned delivery
early 2026.
 
«These innovative low emission vessels are well suited for solving complex tasks
across different segments in the ocean space. The vessel's 150-ton AHC knuckle
boom crane, and expansive 900-square-meter deck area perfectly accommodate
Survey, IMR and construction operations.» says Jostein Alendal, CEO of Reach
Subsea.

«Adding another newbuild is providing fleet renewal and adding scale with a low
emission, versatile vessel. We are pleased to further continue our strong
collaboration with existing partners. This is in line with our strategy and
builds shareholder value» says Helga Cotgrove, CEO of Eidesvik.

«Developing another newbuild with a time charter contract in the subsea segment
is an important milestone for Agalas. Doing this together with our strong
partners, Eidesvik and Reach Subsea, is especially rewarding, ensuring a
market-leading vessel and top-quality operations,» says Mats Nygaard Johnsen,
CEO of Agalas.

The vessel, equipped with dual fuel gensets, can run on either methanol or a
combined MGO/battery system, bolstering Reach Subsea's commitment to
sustainability and climate. When powered by methanol, the vessel's CO2 emissions
are anticipated to be approximately 70 percent lower than those of the existing
fleet. When using the MGO/battery system it is projected to achieve a reduction
of around 20 percent.

The new vessel will be constructed at the Sefine Shipyard in Turkey. It will be
tailored to Reach Subsea's requirements, and specifications have been developed
in close collaboration between Reach, Eidesvik, Agalas and NSK Ship Design (as
designer). It will be equipped with innovative ROV launch and recovery systems
(LARS) and prepared for deep-water operations.
