BW Offshore ( (GB:0RKH) ) has provided an announcement.
BW Offshore has agreed with partners on the Catcher oil field to amend the contract for the FPSO BW Catcher, converting it into a fixed-term arrangement running until 31 December 2030, plus or minus six months, in place of prior unilateral one-year extension options. Effective from 1 February 2026, the new terms are expected to add roughly USD 490 million to BW Offshore’s firm operating cash flow backlog and give clearer visibility on the asset’s contract end date.
The revised framework, which includes a 10% discount on the bareboat charter dayrate offset against the O&M dayrate and a capped production tariff structure from 2028 linked to oil prices, is designed to balance cost relief for the field partners with improved long-term predictability for BW Offshore. Management highlights that the clarified exit timeline will allow active marketing of the high-specification, harsh-environment FPSO for redeployment, positioning the company to capitalise on a tight FPSO market and potentially unlock additional value from the unit beyond the Catcher contract.
