Subsea 7 announces floating wind joint venture

?

Luxembourg - 29 March 2021 - Subsea 7 S.A. (Oslo Børs: SUBC, ADR: SUBCY) today

announced that it has entered into a joint venture with Simply Blue Energy, the

Cork-based marine developer, to further develop its Salamander floating wind

farm concept, off the north east coast of Scotland.

Salamander is a pre-commercial project of up to 200MW that will combine Simply

Blue Energy's experience in floating wind developments in the Celtic Sea, with

Subsea 7's expertise in delivering offshore energy projects in Scotland. As the

concept matures, it is anticipated that a strategic investor will be sought to

support the execution of the project.

John Evans, Chief Executive Officer, Subsea 7 commented: "Subsea 7 believes that

floating wind has an important role to play in the energy transition and a low

carbon future.  We look forward to working with Simply Blue Energy on this

exciting project."
