#### Form F-1/A3 filed March 28, 2023

#### The Offering, page 10

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;***1.*** *We note your disclosure on page 10 that you are offering 7,720,000 common shares (assuming the underwriters exercise in full their option to purchase an additional 1,158,000 common shares). However, this does not appear to be consistent with the offering terms described on the prospectus cover page. Please revise.* 

#### Response:

In response to the Staff's comment, the Registration Statement has been revised on page 10 to be consistent with the offering terms described on the prospectus cover page.

#### Dilution, page 50

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;***2.*** *Please revise to reflect the correct number of common shares purchased by investors in this offering on the second line of the second table. Additionally, in the paragraph preceding this table, please delete if not applicable or explain the parenthetical disclosure "after deducting…by us" that follows NOK 10.43 per $1.00.* 

#### Response:

The Registration Statement has been revised on page 50 to reflect the correct number of common shares purchased by investors in this offering on the second line of the second table.

Also, we have revised the Registration Statement on page 50 to delete the parenthetical disclosure "after deducting estimated underwriting discounts and commissions and expenses of the offering that are payable by us", as this is not determinative of the information included in the such table.

#### Exhibits

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;***3.*** *We note that the fee table filed as Exhibit 107 has not been updated to reflect the maximum aggregate offering price in this amendment, including common shares subject to the underwriters' option to purchase additional shares. Please revise.* 

#### Response:

The Company has filed an updated fee table to reflect the maximum aggregate offering price as Exhibit 107 to the Registration Statement.

#### General

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;***4.*** *Please fill in all blanks in the prospectus, except information that Rule 430A permits the registrant to exclude. For example, please disclose in the risk factor on page 39 the number of common shares that will be outstanding following the offering, and the number of authorized shares on page 120 under "Share Capital." In addition, we note that your disclosure on page 39 that you are authorized to issue up to 140,010,000 common shares, and your disclosure on page 120 with respect to your authorized share capital of $140,010,000, does not appear to be consistent with the Memorandum of Association filed as Exhibit 3.2. Please revise.* 

#### Response:

The Registration Statement has been revised on pages 39 and 120 to include the number of common shares that will be outstanding following the offering and the number of the Company's authorized shares, respectively.

In addition, in respect of the authorized share capital of $140,010,000 and the authorization to issue up to 140,010,000 common shares, the Company notes that under Bermuda law, a company, if authorized in a general meeting and by its bye-laws may alter the conditions of its Memorandum of Association to increase its share capital and any such alteration takes effect from the date of the resolution of shareholders approving it without such alteration requiring the Memorandum of Association to be physically amended. More specifically, where an alteration occurs to increase a company's authorized share capital, the company is required to file a memorandum of increase of share capital with the Bermuda Registrar of Companies within 30 days of the change, after which such registrar issues a Certificate of Deposit of Memorandum of Increase of Share Capital. Since the Company's incorporation, the Company has been authorized pursuant to general meetings of shareholders and by its bye-laws to increase its share capital up to $140,010,000 which would permit the Company to issue up to 140,010,000 common shares and the Company has filed the corresponding Certificate of Deposit of Memorandum of Increase of Share Capital as Exhibit 3.4 to the Registration Statement.
