Harvey Gulf charters Harvey Deep Sea through 2018

MAY 30, 2017 — Harvey Gulf International Marine reports that it has secured a charter extension for the MPSV Harvey Deep-Sea through December 31, 2018.

Harvey Gulf says that, combined with its announcement of four long-term vessel charters last week, it continues to buck the “spot-work” only trend that has been pervasive throughout the ongoing industry downturn for vessel operators.

Delivered by Eastern Shipbuilding in 2013, the Deep-Sea is a Multi-Purpose Support Vessel equipped with a 165-ton NOV heave-compensated, knuckle boom crane, 15 ft x 18 ft moon pool, S92 Helideck, and has capacity for two ROV’s and 70 persons on board.

She is also equipped with liquid mud and dry bulk tanks for traditional OSV operations and has Enviro+ and Green Passport certifications.

Harvey Gulf CEO Shane Guidry commented, “The extension of the Deep-Sea’s charter through December 2018 further reinforces Harvey Gulf’s model of designing vessels for our customers’ needs and demonstrating operational excellence through minimal downtime, continually achieving our ‘Goal Zero’ safety record, and protecting the environment. The result is that our customers want to keep our vessels.”
