Vancouver, BC, Canada, August 26, 2024 – Bridgemans Services Group (Bridgemans), the world’s premier provider of floatels and related marine services, announced today that the Company has retired and sold Diamond XI in favor of acquiring a larger vessel to serve a floatel client in the liquefied natural gas (LNG) industry.
Bridgemans acquired Diamond XI earlier this year. The vessel underwent a retrofit to specifically prepare it for floatel service in spring and summer of 2024 in the Mediterranean Sea. Upon the successful completion of that floatel contract, Bridgemans retired and sold Diamond XI to support the acquisition of a significantly larger floatel vessel. Bridgemans expects to provide more information about the floatel acquisition and its related floatel contract in the near future.
“We obtained Diamond XI and refit the vessel to meet our clients request for a premium midsize floatel. Shortly after the acquisition, the vessel performed superbly on an accommodations assignment in the southeast Mediterranean,” said Brian Grange, President, Bridgemans. “With the emergence of new business opportunities, we recently made the difficult decision to retire the Diamond XI early and acquire a significantly larger vessel to serve a new floatel contract. We plan to add another 100-300 pax floatel to our fleet in the new year.”
