Rem Offshore

What Rem Offshore does

Rem Offshore is a privately held Norwegian offshore vessel operator headquartered in Fosnavåg with a branch office in Varna, Bulgaria, and approximately 750 employees, of whom roughly 700 are seafarers and 47 onshore staff. The company operates a fleet of 21 modern vessels organized into three segments: Platform Supply Vessels (PSVs) for cargo and consumable transport to offshore installations; Construction Service Operation Vessels (CSOVs) — including Purus Power, Rem Energy, Rem Wind, and Rem Power TBN — purpose-built for offshore wind farm crew transfer and accommodation; and Construction Support Vessels (CSVs/IMR/ESCV) such as Rem Inspector, Rem Saltire, Rem Andes, and the under-construction Rem Pioneer and Rem Ocean for subsea installation, inspection, maintenance, and repair (IMR) work. The Rem Pioneer ESCV and Rem Ocean IMR vessel are dual-fuel methanol-powered with battery hybrid propulsion and electric cranes capable of up to 90% emission reduction on biofuel, positioning Rem as one of the first operators of net-zero subsea construction tonnage.

Revenue is generated almost entirely through time-charter contracts negotiated directly with energy operators and subsea service companies — long-term agreements of three to eight years (with the Rem Ocean/DeepOcean/Equinor charter at eight years being the largest in company history) — at contractually negotiated daily rates, supplemented by one-off vessel sales. The fleet operates primarily in the North Sea with deployment into international waters, serving enterprise customers that include Equinor, DeepOcean, DOF, and other energy majors and subsea service providers. Fleet utilization of 94–96% across 2023–2025, an order backlog of NOK 6.2 billion in firm contracts (≈NOK 8.5 billion including options) as of June 2026, and FY2025 revenue of NOK 1.98 billion (EBITDA NOK 1.27 billion, net profit NOK 1.03 billion) evidence a contract-locked, capital-intensive, asset-heavy operating model. Go-to-market is a direct enterprise sales motion through a dedicated chartering team led by a Chartering & Operation Manager and CCO, with no channel intermediaries, reinforced by ISO 9001/14001/45001/50001 certifications and ESG positioning (OSJ ESG Award 2026, 50% fleet emission-reduction target by 2030) increasingly required by European offshore energy procurement.

Revenue model

1. Vessel chartering and time charter contracts: Rem Offshore operates a fleet of offshore support vessels (PSVs, CSOVs, CSVs, IMR/ESCV vessels, seismic vessels) under time charter contracts to energy companies. Revenue is generated through daily charter rates for vessel hire, crew, and support services. Contracts range from 1-year extensions to 8-year long-term charters. Revenue grew from NOK 1.38B (2023) to NOK 1.82B (2024) to NOK 1.98B (2025). Fleet utilization rates of 94-96%.
2. Subsea services support (chartered vessel operations): Provision of purpose-built subsea construction and IMR vessels with crew, cranes, and ROVs for inspection, maintenance, repair and subsea construction services. Charterers handle engineering services and execution while Rem provides the vessel and crew.
3. Offshore wind support services: CSOVs provide essential support services to offshore wind farms including crew transfer, accommodation, and logistics. Rem Energy, Rem Wind, and Purus Power serve the offshore wind segment.
4. Seismic survey vessel operations: Node seismic vessel Rem Andes provides seismic survey services. Contract extended for 1 year with DOF.
5. Vessel sale (one-time): Occasional sale of vessels such as Rem Supporter (sold with approximately NOK 240M accounting gain) and Rem Aquarius.
