French OSV owner Bourbon has taken 18 ships out of layup during the first half.
The Jacques de Chateauvieux-owned company said on Thursday that the moves reflected the progressive return to service of vessels and the implementation of the disposal plan for non-strategic vessels.
The company, which began a court restructuring in France in August, added that it had 163 units stacked in the first half, down 10% year-on-year.
