Adani Ports and Special Economic Zone announced its offshore business, Astro Offshore, has entered into a contract with Oceaneering International for offshore and subsea operations in Europe. The development was disclosed in a filing issued on May 12, 2026.
The agreement is linked to subsea engineering work in deepwater offshore projects. These activities include cable laying, underwater construction, pipeline installation, inspection and maintenance work carried out in offshore environments.
Astro Offshore has added a 97-metre DP2 multipurpose support vessel, Energy Savanah, to its fleet. The vessel will be renamed Astro Atlas. Built in 2021, the vessel is fitted with a 150-tonne subsea crane, a secondary 25-tonne crane, a moonpool, and accommodation capacity for 100 personnel.
According to the company, the vessel can operate in water depths of more than 3,000 metres. It is expected to be used for subsea construction work, cable laying and offshore pipeline projects.
The vessel also marks Astro Offshore’s entry into ultra-deepwater operations.
