Attached herewith as Exhibit 99.1 is a press release, issued on November 17,
2008, whereby Acergy S.A. (the "Company") announced that its Extraordinary
General Meeting (the "Meeting") of shareholders will be held on Thursday,
December 18, 2008 at 11:00 a.m. local time at the offices of Services Generaux
de Gestion S.A., 412F, route d'Esch, L-2086 Luxembourg. All shareholders of
record as of November 19, 2008 will be entitled to vote at the meeting.

The purpose of the Meeting is to consider and approve recommendations with
respect of stock option plans. Notice of the Meeting will be distributed to
eligible shareholders no later than November 27, 2008.

Certain statements set forth above and contained in the press release furnished
pursuant to this Form 6-K may include "forward-looking statements" within the
meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934. These statements may be identified by the use
of words like "anticipate," "believe," "estimate," "expect," "intend," "may,"
"plan," "project," "will," "should," "seek," and similar expressions. These
statements include, but are not limited to, statements as to the expected timing
of and record date for the Meeting and statements as to the purpose of the
Meeting. The forward-looking statements reflect our current views and
assumptions and are subject to risks and uncertainties. The following factors,
and others which are discussed in our public filings and submissions with the
U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, are among those that may cause actual
and future results and trends to differ materially from our forward-looking
statements: our ability to recover costs on significant projects; the general
economic conditions and competition in the markets and businesses in which we
operate; our relationship with significant clients; the outcome of legal
proceedings or governmental enquiries; uncertainties inherent in operating
internationally; the timely delivery of ships on order and the timely completion
of ship conversion programs; the impact of laws and regulations; and operating
hazards, including spills and environmental damage. Many of these factors are
beyond our ability to control or predict. Given these factors, you should not
place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements.
