Oslo, 26 January 2020: DeepOcean today confirms that the restructuring and wind-down process of its UK Cable Lay & Trenching business, announced on November 18 2020, has been successfully completed.

Through the completion of the wind-down and with further secured long-term financing from its lenders and owners, DeepOcean is now on a sound financial footing with a strong platform for further growth.

“We are pleased that the plan for a solvent wind-down, which was based on a difficult, but necessary decision following a long period of sustained losses for the division, has been approved. The company can now move forward with a sound financial footing, and our strategy and ambition to be the leading, globally recognized, locally differentiated, subsea services provider remains.”, said Øyvind Mikaelsen, CEO of DeepOcean.
