Hermitage Offshore has added two directors to its board, bringing the total to eight.
Cameron Mackey, chief operations officer for New York-traded Hermatige and siblings Scorpio Tankers and Scorpio Bulkers, is now a class B director at the offshore player.
Bjarte Boe, former head of shipping and offshore finance at Swedish Skandinaviska Enskilda Banken, joins as an independent class A director.
Mackey joins chairman and chief executive Emanuele Lauro, president Robert Bugbee and Marianne Okland as Scorpio-connected directors.
Lauro and Bugbee hold the same positions at both Scorpio Tankers and Scorpio Bulkers.
Okland is a director at Scorpio Tankers and joined the board in January.
Scorpio served as the savior for the former Nordic American Offshore late last year, spending $5m on a private placement to take a leading stake.
The formerly Herbjorn Hansson-led company had little cash and large debts when a merger with privately-held Canadian firm Horizon Maritime was called off.
The company was renamed Hermitage Offshore at the start of the second quarter.
The company posted a $7.2m loss for the first quarter, badly missing analyst expectations.
Still, Lauro said the company was beginning a new era with a new name, a new chief financial officer in Christopher Avella and a $20m refinancing plan hashed out with Mackenzie Financial Corp.
