and solutions provider for the global offshore energy sector, announces that
its Remuneration Committee has conditionally granted long-term incentive
awards over 438,622 new ordinary shares of 5 pence each in the Company at nil

The Awards will vest in one tranche following a three-year performance period
not earlier than the date of release of the Company's annual report for the

target compound annual growth of Adjusted Earnings Per Share, 25% of the award
is linked to the achievement of an average ROIC and 25% of the award is linked
to the achievement of total shareholder return (TSR) relative to the wider
market tested against the performance of the Numis Smaller Companies Index +
AIM Index (ex-Investment Companies). The Awards are subject to clawback
provisions. Further details of the performance conditions will be set out in
the notice of the 2023 Annual General Meeting ("AGM"), which will shortly be
posted to shareholders.
In accordance with best practice under the Remuneration Committee Guide
published by the Quoted Companies Alliance, the Company will seek shareholder
