SCHIFFAHRT |
| By the
beginning of 2007 anyone with any money to spare wanted to
get into the oil industry in one way or another. A mobile
unit which had had a value of about $16,000,000 in 2004 was
sold in early 2006 for $100,000,000 which was thought by
many to be an amazing price, but it was later sold again for
$160,000,000.
Nordcapital, a German group seemed to be following this
particular money trail and have developed an interest
in offshore support vessels. In 2006 they ordered eight
UT755s from Aker yards.
In February 2007 it was
announced that they had purchased the three VS470 Mk IIs,
managed by Harms Bergung but apparently owned by another
money company. Today
(June 2009) the ships are managed as part of the
E.R.Schiffahrt group which operates container vessels, and
bulk carriers as well as its offshore fleet.
By 2013 there had been no
changes to the fleet since 2011, nor apparently have there
been any at the 2014 review.

indicated that they have two ships on order from Vietnam.
