The contract applies to the drilling seasons 2014 and 2015, with options for the drilling seasons 2016 and 2017. The drilling seasons are expected to commence around May each year. Viking Supply Ships is also contracted for consulting services related to the offshore operations in the Kara Sea for the years 2014 and 2015.
