History
Macro Offshore was created through a merger between Master Marine and Crossway Holdings in 2019. The merged company was established in Norway on the back of Master Marine’s organisation.
Master Marine was established in 1997 as an offshore service company specialising in transportation and installation of larger modules to the oil and gas industry. In 2008 the company ordered a wind installation vessel, which prior to completion was converted to an offshore accommodation jackup. The company commenced its first accommodation service contract in 2011 at ConocoPhillips’ Ekofisk/Eldfisk complex.
Crossway Holdings was established by a group of offshore investment professionals in 2014 and took delivery of Crossway Eagle in 2016. Crossway Eagle is a purpose built accommodation jackup which has been on contract with TotalEnergies (prev. Maersk Oil & Gas) since November 2016.
Company structure
Macro Offshore currently owns one accommodation rig – Crossway Eagle, and does technical and commercial management of Haven, which is owned by Jacktel AS.
In addition, the company has a marketing right and an option to buy Crossway Eagle’s sister vessel Crossway Dolphin.
