MARINE CORPORATION
|
Aries Marine is a
traditional Gulf of Mexico supply boat and
liftboat company which was started ujp in 1981
by Dwight S. Ramsay. It was and still is
privately owned. The company website did not
tell us why Mr Ramsay decided to go into the
offshore support business. There are some who
would probably say that it was as the result of
temporary insanity. However the company had
developed and now has 15 liftboats and 9 supply
vessels in the fleet. There is one shiop due for
delivery in 2015.
They only came to
our attention due to the submission of a photo
of one of the fleet by the Captain of a
drill ship. The dimensions and details of the
vessels are in Imperial Units.
Initiated 18th
December 2014.
