The chief executive of semi-submersible accommodation vessel owner Prosafe says the company is set to harvest strong growth from the tightening offshore accommodation market
Citing strong market fundamentals and rising day rates, Reese McNeel said Prosafe had moved into 2026 “with a strong foundation for long-term value creation with all high-end vessels on contract into 2027 and a backlog at a near 10-year high, reflecting… new contracts at materially higher day rates.”
Announcing Q4 2025 results, Prosafe said it is on track to deliver strong EBITDA growth supported by cost- efficient operations and capital discipline.”
Prosafe is doing particularly well in Brazil, where it has a leading position, with backlog extending into 2030. The company has also benefited from a cost and operational efficiency drive, and is exploring ‘strategic opportunities’ and potential M&A activity.
In a presentation about its Q4 2025 results, Prosafe said its fleet had 100% utilisation in Q4 2025 with all five units on contract, and good operating and safety performance. Apart from Brazil, where the company has 20% of the market, Africa, where demand is also growing, is also creating opportunities for Prosafe.
Prosafe reported EBITDA of US$21.1M (US$8.4M in the previous year) for Q4 2025. All five of the company’s vessels generated revenue throughout the quarter. Full-year 2025 EBITDA was US$40.0M, at the high end of the company’s guided range for the year, and up from US$27.2M in 2024.
Based on its increased order backlog, continued market improvements, reduced costs and the 2025 recapitalisation, Prosafe said it is set to deliver continued earnings growth in 2026 with full-year EBITDA expected in the range of US$45-55M.
