Reported EBITDA for the fourth quarter was USD 0.7 million (USD 6.4 million negative), reflecting cost efficiency partly offset by lower average day rates. Underlying EBITDA adjusted for one-offs was USD 2.8 million. Liquidity reserve at year-end was USD 160.3 million. The Company aims to conclude a sustainable financial solution with lenders as soon as possible.
Recent highlights

- Operating status and financial results
- Utilisation of 25% in Q4 (23%)
- Despite lower average day rates, reported EBITDA of USD 0.7 million (USD 6.4 million negative) due to good cost performance; while the underlying EBITDA adjusted for one-offs was USD 2.8 million (USD 0.4 million negative)
- Cash flow from operations was USD 2.3 million negative (USD 9.5 million positive)
- Commercial status
- Secured a 90-day contract with an option of up to 60 days for ConocoPhillips commencing Q2 2022

Jesper K. Andresen, Prosafe’s CEO says, "The financial results for the fourth quarter of 2020 and for the full year 2020 reflect lower utilization and average day rates as a result of the downcycle and Covid-19. Still we managed to protect our order book, secure new contracts and extensions, and generate a positive EBITDA. I am pleased about the organisation’s ability to adapt and manoeuvre under challenging circumstances."
