Prio’s new OSV?

Back in 2022, PRIO announced the acquisition of the semi-submersible rig West Capricorn, which has since been renamed Hunter Queen and is presently involved in drilling activities for the company. While not officially announced, it appears that the Brazilian oil company will add a 2002-built MPSV named Edda Fjord to its fleet this year.

The former vessel operator, Østensjø Reder, formally announced that it has been delivered to its new owners in Haugesund, Norway, and is currently en route to Brazil. The sale price was not disclosed. As the company is not a Brazilian Shipping Company (EBN), PRIO is likely to hire one to take care of the vessel’s management and operations.
