Attached herewith as Exhibit 99.1 is a press release, dated March 3, 2008,
whereby Acergy S.A. (the "Company") announced that it has purchased an
additional 255,000 of its common shares at an average price of NOK 112.24 per
share.

The attached press release shall be deemed to be incorporated by reference into
the prospectuses forming a part of the Company's Registration Statements on Form
S-8 (No. 33-85168, No. 333-9292, No. 333-74321, No. 333-124983 and No.
333-124997) and the Company's Registration Statements on Form F-3 and Form F-3/A
(No. 333-86288) and to be a part of such prospectuses from the date of the
filing thereof.

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. The
forward-looking statements reflect the Company's current views and assumptions
and are subject to risks and uncertainties. The following factors, and others
which are discussed in the Company's 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 the Company's
forward-looking statements: the Company's ability to recover costs on
significant projects; the general economic conditions and competition in the
markets and businesses in which the Company operates; the Company's relationship
with significant clients; the outcome of legal and administrative 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 the Company's
ability to control or predict. Given these factors, you should not place undue
reliance on the forward-looking statements.
