The Company was the long-term charterer of the diving support and construction vessel (DSCV) SBM Installer under a contract ending in 2026. The Company had 25% equity ownership in the entity holding the vessel, OS Installer Limited (OSI). The Company acquired the remaining 75% equity ownership in OSI on September 30, 2020. As a result, OSI has been fully consolidated as from such acquisition date and the existing lease liability related to the long-term charter was derecognized since the obligation became an intercompany liability eliminated in the group consolidated financial statements. The value of the lease liability at the acquisition date was US$87 million. Please refer to note 4.3.1 Financial Highlights.
