Haugesund, Norway, 19 October 2026: Reach Subsea ASA ("Reach" or the "Company")
provides an update on the ongoing collective bargaining process with SAFE.
The mediation between Reach and SAFE concluded without an agreement by the
mediation deadline at midnight on 16 October 2026. As a result, industrial
action has commenced and six offshore employees covered by the SAFE Offshore
Collective Agreement have been called out on strike.
The Company is currently assessing the operational and financial implications of
the industrial action. At this stage, Reach continues to monitor the situation
closely and remains focused on maintaining safe and efficient operations across
its projects.
Reach remains committed to constructive dialogue with SAFE and to finding a
mutually acceptable solution as soon as possible.
The Company will provide further updates should there be any material
developments.
