Tidewater is planning to raise $425m in debt to help refinance borrowings and fund its vessel expansion programme.
The maritime transport company said it will raise $310m through senior unsecured notes and $115m through private placements.
The notes will mature in five to 12 years and will have a weighted average life to maturity of approximately nine years.
Tidewater will use some of the proceeds to refinance its $450m revolving credit facility, with the remaining invested in its on-going fleet enhancement programme and for general corporate purposes.
