Covington, Louisiana-based Hornbeck Offshore Services touts itself as a leading provider of technologically advanced, new generation offshore service vessels primarily in the Gulf of Mexico and Latin America.
The company has been hit hard by the prolonged downturn in the offshore oil and gas industry prompted by the crash in oil prices beginning mid-2014. Since then, Hornbeck has seen its stock tank from its peak of more than $50 in 2013 to just $0.30 before its suspension on Friday.
As of September 30, 2019, Hornbeck’s fleet consisted of 66 new generation OSVs and eight MPSVs, of which 35 OSVs and two MPSVs were stacked.
