Luxembourg - 13 March 2017 - Subsea 7 S.A. (Oslo Børs: SUBC,
ADR: SUBCY) today announced the acquisition, from K&S Baltic
Offshore (Cyprus) Limited, of its 50% shareholding in Seaway
Heavy Lifting Holding Limited (Seaway Heavy Lifting).
Following signing and completion, after close of business
on 10 March 2017, Seaway Heavy Lifting and its subsidiaries
became wholly-owned by Subsea 7 (the Group).
Jean Cahuzac, CEO, said: "Our investment to acquire the
remaining shares in Seaway Heavy Lifting, such that it
becomes a wholly-owned subsidiary of our Group, is aligned
with our strategy to grow and strengthen our business for
the long-term. Consolidating Seaway Heavy Lifting into the
Group increases our participation in Renewables, Heavy
Lifting and Decommissioning services. These are areas
where we expect market activity to increase and see
potential to grow our market share."
The Group will report revenues and net operating income
from Seaway Heavy Lifting within a new Business Unit
'Renewables and Heavy Lifting'. This new reporting
structure will be reflected within the Group's first
quarter results, which will be announced on 27 April 2017.
