Comments

  • Contingent liabilities related to Alfa Lift and VIND 1 specified in note 10, totalling \$381 million.
  • \$28 million undrawn from RCF at end of Q2 2021.

Status financing

  • In our Q1 report we confirmed to have accepted a firm offer, subject to satisfactory documentation, for a \$135.0 million Senior Secured Green ECA Credit Facility agreement for the post-delivery financing of the wind foundation installation vessel Alfa Lift.
  • After our 8 July announcement of OHT combining with Subsea 7's renewables business, we approached the financiers for a "time out" until the completion of the combination.
  • Subsea 7 will contribute assets free of net debt or excess cash and will provide financial support for Seaway 7 ASA's working capital needs.
  • Future capital expenditures are expected to be met through operating cashflows and, if required, new debt facilities supported by Subsea 7.

Accounting treatment and listing prospects

Accounting treatment of combination

  • OHT ASA will be surviving entity and renamed to Seaway 7 ASA.
  • From an accounting perspective Subsea 7's renewables business unit will be deemed to have acquired OHT ASA through a reverse takeover.
  • Combination date 1 October.
  • Q3 reporting will show current OHT ASA.
  • Q4 reporting will show Seaway 7 Group.

Listing prospects

  • Seaway 7 ASA will keep its Euronext Growth listing.
  • Shareholder Lotus Marine has been approved as part of free liquidity by OSE, so as a start Seaway 7 will have 14% free float.
  • To be able to transfer to the main board, free float must be increased to minimum 25% (in some cases 20% may be accepted).

Transportation

Operations and projects

  • Activity levels and pricing continue to improve as predicted.
  • Utilisation in Q2 was 93%, up from 90% in Q1 and Opex was in line with budget at \$9,185 per day.
  • Cumulative savings on fuel cost due to scrubber installations made in 2019 stand at \$9.9 million, corresponding to a payback on Capex of 87% so far.

Windfarm Installation – high-quality project pipeline

None of our target contracts have yet been awarded for 2024 or beyond

Installation

Operations and contracts

  • The Dogger Bank A and B projects are in detail design and showing good progress.
  • Continuing dialogue with the client regarding impact of certain changes introduced by the client.
  • Subcontracts for grillage and lifting equipment have been placed or are imminent.
  • No undesired incidents and the Client relationship remains good and constructive.
  • Start offshore construction in Q3 2022.

Newbuilding status

Alfa Lift

  • General vessel construction has progressed satisfactorily.
  • All preparations for crane installation were completed in May, and the main crane has since been installed onboard.
  • The first two generator sets have been started and run.
  • Shipyard maintains vessel delivery end 2021, but as we will install mission equipment before departure from China, we will keep the vessel at the shipyard in Q1 2022.

VIND 1

  • Detailed design: 67% of documents Issued for Approval.
  • All key equipment selected, VDL target of >10,000t.
  • Delivery mid-2023.

Combining complementary strengths to become a leading player

Focus will solely be on bottom-fixed offshore wind

Twelve high-end vessels including two newbuilds

Covering all segments within the bottom fixed offshore wind value chain

Proximity to all the key clients and markets

Status merger process

On track for the merger to be completed on 1 October 2021

  • Integration planning on schedule.
  • Approval process from relevant competition authorities is ongoing.
  • Positive outcome from Employee Consultation process, and Works Council approvals process completed.
  • As announced previously, Board approval is secured from Subsea 7 ASA and approval by Subsea 7's shareholders is not required.
  • The two largest owners in OHT, representing 76.7% of all shares, have already confirmed they will support the combination.
  • Closing of the transaction is anticipated on 1 October 2021.

Market and Outlook

Offshore wind

Transportation

  • We have already seen improved utilisation and stronger pricing, and prices will continue to increase.
  • We see a material reduction of available capacity due to competitors' backlog on large oil & gas projects which have not been targeted by the Company.
  • Bidding Offshore Wind related transportation projects up until 2027, which will represent a substantial part of the market with foundation components to be transported
    • from Asia to Europe, and
    • From Europe to the US.
  • This is a strategically important market segment in support of our offshore wind strategy.

Installation

  • Government ambitions continue to increase.
  • Many question if ambitions are realistic, due to bottlenecks in permitting, planning and not least the supply chain.
  • There will be a critical bottleneck especially within monopile installation from 2024/25, with no international newbuilds having been announced in the last 22 months and long lead times for any new vessel ordering.
  • Both our newbuilds are available from 2024 onwards.
  • We will continue to be disciplined wrt pricing and are confident that our timing to market is right.
  • Immediate positive market synergies will be gained from the formation of Seaway 7 ASA.
