Siem takes over Farstad Shipping
Kristian Siem will take over Farstad Shipping in the latest wave of consolidation sweeping the Norwegian OSV scene. Under the terms of the agreement, Farstad will issue a minimum of 702m ordinary shares for a total subscription of minimum NKr1bn ($117m) at a price per share of approximately NKr1.4245. Siem will underwrite NKr1bn of the cash issue, and subscribe for and be allocated a minimum number of new shares so that Siem owns 50.1% of the shares in Farstad, post restructuring.
