EMGS and BOA agree on new terms for the charter agreements for the BOA vessels
Electromagnetic Geoservices ASA (EMGS) has signed an extended charter agreement
for the vessel BOA Thalassa with BOA SBL AS (owner of the vessel) at new and
improved commercial terms. The new terms are valid as of 1 October 2015.
"We are very pleased with this new agreement. It lowers our cost commitment and
gives us operational flexibility," says Stig Eide Sivertsen, CEO of EMGS.
Following the agreement, EMGS will re-deliver the BOA Galatea on 15 December,
which originally was the expiry date for BOA Thalassa. The charter agreement for
BOA Thalassa will be extended from 17 July, which originally was the expiry date
for BOA Galatea, until 1 April 2017.
The agreement provides EMGS with improved commercial terms, which will benefit
the Company under the current contract work in Malaysia and going forward. The
agreement includes different rates for when the vessel is in operation, idle or
laid up.
