As in the previous quarters, the positive performance was driven by a combination of tariff increases, special operation jobs, and new operations that have commenced since the same period last year."
"In the quarter, we succeeded in progressing and renewing contracts with existing customers across regions, and we initiated operations relating to a new five-year, one-tug customer contract in Brazil. There were no larger new terminal towage contracts awarded in our addressable markets during the quarter."
