Topaz Energy and Marine, an offshore support vessel company, announced the renewal of its long-standing contract with ABB for the Topaz Installer, a specialized cable-laying vessel.

Under the terms of the contract, the Topaz Installer will provide ABB, a high-voltage cable and power transmission supplier, with cable-laying services in support of wind farms in the North Sea for a period of one year — with options of at least another 12 months. The original contract between the two companies was first signed in 2010.

“We are pleased to be renewing our partnership with ABB which is built on many years of close cooperation,” said René Kofod-Olsen, Chief Executive Officer, Topaz Energy and Marine. “We are looking forward to continuing our work with ABB and the continued provision of exceptional and cost-effective services.”
