NORTH SEA
SHIPPING
|
For us North Sea
Shipping appeared as if by magic when their
vessel, the North Sea Giant appeared in 2012,
and it was announced that it was the largest
offshore support vessel in the world. Actually
it appears that they have been in the shipping
business for years and have operated seismic
ships since the 1980s. They are a family owned
concern and like other Norwegian shipowners have
their roots in the fishing business. It
appears from their fleet list that they have a
number of ships bareboated to other operators.
We have not developed a process for dealing this
this situation, and so some of the bareboated
craft may also appear here. I suppose at the
moment it depends on the availability of
information. One of the ships, surely only
usable for cable laying has been left out.
At the time of the
2014 review it appears that all the previously
chartered ships have disappeared, maybe back to
their owners, and the company have one ship
being built.
