THE ABERDEEN WEBCAM
 

 

 

 

 

 

   

ØSTENSJØ REDERI AS
Edda are well known for developing and operating advanced platform ships, and have had two ships on charter to Shell out of Aberdeen for as long as anyone can remember, by 2009 Shell had chartered the new Edda Fram, which has a revolutionary bulk handling system, and is powered by a Voith Schneider system.

They operate escort tugs in Southampton and in Norway.

During the latter part of the first decade of the 21st century they provided a ship on which was installed a set of portacabins, and this "passenger ship" operated in support of the Bonga project in West Africa. This has caused the company to take steps in the direction of accommodation vessels, and now have an accommodation vessel about to enter service (April 2010).
