“While our financial results reflect the impact of our legacy backlog and reorganization expenses, we made significant progress during the quarter on our plan to improve operational performance of the Company,” said David Dickson, President and Chief Executive Officer of McDermott. “With the support and confidence of our lenders and investors, we completed our new financing arrangements in April; we improved focus on business accountability and customer relationships; and we completed our remaining first-of-a-kind projects in Malaysia and Brazil.”

Dickson added, “We are starting to see tangible improvement in the performance and execution of many of our legacy projects. We completed installation of the tension leg platform for the Papa Terra project in Brazil, achieved mechanical completion of Siakap in Malaysia, and installation of the COP project in Azerbaijan is complete. As we complete implementation of our new organisation, we look forward to further operational improvements and capitalising on the robust offshore EPCI market to drive long-term growth, profitability and shareholder value creation.”
