Singapore managing director Bill Petrie said: “We are extremely pleased that Solstad Offshore have entrusted iSURVEY with survey and positioning works for its forthcoming pipeline and platform campaign. This is recognition of the efficiency and quality of our solutions, and we are pleased they have chosen to extend and renew our contract with them.”
