"With additional year charter options, this marks North Star’s most sizeable emergency response rescue vessel (ERRV) order book in recent years," the company, which operates a fleet of 41 ERRVs, said.

Its ERRV fleet is currently assigned to support 50 offshore oil and gas installations in the North Sea region.

Matthew Gordon, North Star CEO said: “Winning these significant ERRV contracts worth £100 million demonstrates the industry’s ongoing confidence in our highly effective and reliable fleet which continues to provide a safe place in case of an incident for the thousands of people working out at sea on oil and gas assets every hour of every day, solidly across the year."
