The shipping company stated that with its proven DP3 capabilities, continuous gangway connection functionality, and large accommodation capacity, Nor Spirit is fully capable of supporting safe and efficient offshore operations throughout the project. The company noted that this contract further strengthens its position in the offshore accommodation market and expressed gratitude to SBM Offshore, Block 15 operator ExxonMobil, and all related partners for their trust.

Block 15 is operated by ExxonMobil in partnership with Azule Energy, Equinor, and Sonangol. SBM Offshore has secured ownership and operational rights until 2032 through contract extensions for FPSO Mondo and Saxi Batuque.

This transaction comes approximately two months after Subsea Integration Alliance (SIA) secured a contract from ExxonMobil. Previously, SIA obtained the engineering, procurement, construction, and installation (EPCI) scope for the Redevelopment 2.0 Likembe oil project in Block 15 offshore Angola.
