Its SeaEnergy Ship Management unit has formed a 51:49 joint venture with Otto Marine's Go Offshore.

GOSeaEnergy Ship Management will manage Go's vessels in UK, European and adjacent waters.

It already manages a Go research ship and will take over an anchor-handler this summer, with more vessels to follow.

The pair will also team up on the construction and operation of accommodation and maintenance vessels for offshore wind farm and oil and gas support using SeaEnergy’s "walk-to-work" designs.
