Skandi-Maroy Vessel Reviews and Specifications

On October 23, 2023, the offshore vessel 'Skandi Marøy' experienced a loss of propulsion and collided with the 'Ekofisk 2/4 K' oil platform, leading to an immediate suspension of operations at the site. Thankfully, there were no injuries reported, and all personnel remained on board without any evacuations. As a precautionary measure, production on the 'Ekofisk 2/4 K' has been halted until further assessments are conducted. Following the incident, the 'Skandi Marøy' made its way to the port of Tananger for thorough inspections and safely docked there on October 24, 2023. Investigations into the incident are ongoing as authorities ensure the safety and integrity of both the vessel and the platform.

On July 17, 2025, the offshore supply ship 'Skandi Marøy' experienced an incident when it allided with the pedestrian bridge connecting the 'Ekofisk Bravo' oil platform (located at 61° 31′ 31.58″ N, 2° 12′ 41.42″ E) and the versatile drilling, water injection, and accommodation platform 'Ekofisk 2/4 Kilo' (positioned at 56° 33' 56.89'' N, 3° 12' 21.98'' E). Both platforms are managed by ConocoPhillips Scandinavia AS and are situated in a strategic area of the Central North Sea, approximately 290 kilometers southwest of Norway's coastline and three kilometers north of the Ekofisk center. Fortunately, there were no injuries reported in this incident. Initial assessments revealed only minor damage. However, the bridge was closed for thorough inspection, and both platforms were taken offline pending the investigation's outcome. Production activities at Kilo and Bravo were temporarily halted, although operations at the Ekofisk facility continued without interruption. The 'Skandi Marøy' sustained slight damage, including some impaired antennas and a broken window, but it remained in the oil field until a replacement vessel could be dispatched. The situation highlights the importance of safety and operational protocols in offshore drilling environments.
