The continuing recovery in the North Sea platform supply vessel sector has seen another ship brought out of lay-up.
Norway's Golden Energy Offshore Services has reactivated the 4,000-dwt Energy Duchess (built 2009) after 14 months in port after the market was hit by restrictions caused by the Covid-19 pandemic.
The vessel is now working for a "first-class international operator" for a firm period of 40 days, plus options, at prevailing market rates, the owner said.
