Ezra Holdings, the integrated support and marine services provider in the offshore oil & gas (O&G) sector, says it will soon be able to operate in the Arctic region, following its recent purchase of all the equipment, engines and thrusters from the abandoned Ice Maiden project at distressed prices.

The shipset – which allows vessels to operate under harsh and demanding conditions, even in glacier-filled areas – will further develop the group’s range of deepwater subsea capabilities, says Ezra.
