While the Vice President of Deep Sea Mooring, Åge Straume, added, "We have had a great cooperation with Odfjell as owner and customer, and look forward to a continued close relationship. HitecVision as a new owner is welcomed by both Deep Sea Mooring management and employees. We know HitecVision as a leading investor for our type of company, with a strong track record in this segment, and we have noted the success of previous investments. With this strong investor backing, we will be able to grow Deep Sea Mooring further as the preferred supplier of high quality mooring equipment, pre-lay mooring solutions and services to the oil and gas industry."
