Prosafe SE: Third quarter 2023 results
(Figures in brackets refer to the corresponding period of 2023)
EBITDA for the third quarter was USD 8.4 million (USD 24.2 million). The decrease in EBITDA was mainly driven by lower utilisation during the quarter compared to 2022. Prosafe sees increased vessel demand going forward which is expected to lead to higher utilisation, improved day rates and earnings growth.
Key events
Operations, HSSE and backlog
- Q3 2023 utilisation of 52.3% (77.3%), four out of seven vessels operating during the quarter
- Safe Zephyrus, Safe Notos and Safe Eurus had full utilisation in the quarter

- Backlog of USD 268 million (USD 293 million) at quarter end
Q3 financials
- Revenues of USD 32.8 million (USD 63.6 million) and EBITDA of USD 8.4 million ( USD 24.2 million)
- Cash flow from operations of negative USD14.0 million (USD 24.5 million), impacted by lower operating result and higher working capital
- Capex of USD 5.7 million and capitalised mobilisation cost of USD 5.8 million
- Liquidity of USD 49.0 million (USD 74.5 million) at end of quarter
Market and outlook
- Favourable medium- and long-term demand outlook with Prosafe controlling a significant share of open high-end accommodation capacity in 2024 and 2025
- Well positioned to capture increased demand in the North Sea following weak 2023 with the only DP3 vessel available for 2024
- Strong and improving Brazil market with rising day rates and durations on the back of increased demand
- New contracts expected in Brazil which may absorb further high-end units from the North Sea and other regions, further tightening supply
- Liquidity impacted by the current North Sea activity level and capital expenditure plus mobilisation spend for new contracts in Brazil and US Gulf of Mexico (US GoM)
CEO comment
Reese McNeel, CEO (Interim) says, “Our performance improved during the quarter with the Safe Concordia commencing operations in the US Gulf of Mexico in early August, bringing the active fleet to four vessels.
There is high activity tied to projects requiring offshore accommodation with several ongoing client discussions and new tenders expected in the coming months. We control a large share of the open high-end capacity in 2024 and 2025 and are well positioned to capture new work in a tightening market with improving day rates.”

Bahrain unveils its National Energy Strategy and steps up commitment to achieve net zero emissions by 206030.11.2023 15:53:48 CET | Press release
MANAMA, Bahrain, Nov. 30, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Bahrain today unveiled its National Energy Strategy: a clear, credible, and responsible pathway to reaching the climate targets the Kingdom pledged to achieve at COP26, namely a 30 percent reduction in emissions by 2035 on the road to net-zero emissions by 2060. The Strategy is rooted in the twin objectives of decarbonizing Bahrain’s economy while ensuring reliable and affordable access to the energy the Kingdom needs to sustain and, indeed, accelerate its growth. It is one of 6 priority sector strategies that stem from the Kingdom’s forward-looking Economic Recovery Plan. Recognizing that there are many ways to approach decarbonization, with some countries focusing on a regulatory approach and others focusing on industry-led initiatives, the Kingdom leveraged its small country advantage to opt for a partnership model. The Strategy is the product of genuine collaboration between government and industry. It did this in an effort to harn
