The vessel began operations as a well-intervention vessel in September 2013, when the contract with Total started.
Maintenance and repairs on the vessel, which stopped its operations at the end of March, limited its capacity use to 37%.
The full details of the cancellation on Aker’s finances will be revealed in the company’s second quarter financial results that are due to be released in mid-July.
