General – Charter Agreement

Geoquip Marine (Geoquip) announces the extension of the charter agreement with Myklebusthaug for the Dina Polaris.

Under the agreement, the vessel will remain part of Geoquip’s operational fleet through to 2030.

Recognised as one of the world’s largest and most capable geotechnical drilling vessels, the 98.9-metre-long Dina Polaris is purpose-built for research in some of the harshest weather conditions.

Equipped with Geoquip Marine’s GMTR120 twin-tower deepwater geotechnical drilling rig, she is engineered for drilling, coring, sampling, and testing across all soil types at depths of up to 2,500 metres.

To date, the vessel has completed over 30 offshore projects worldwide and is ready for deployment globally through to 2030.
