NAVIERA BOURBON TAMAULIPAS

As far as one can gather this company is now a joint venture between Bourbon and the original Naviera Tamaulipas, a traditional Mexican offshore support vessel company, which was initiated in 2006. To the continued progress of the company Bourbon have contributed an anchor handler and two crew boats (Castor and Pollux not detailed here) and the Mexicans have contributed three platform ships. Pictures are a bit limited, according to the company website Naviera Tamaulipas operate some very small platform ships, which we have a couple of pictures of, but no other details.

At the time of revision in 2011 it appears that Bourbon have contributed a couple of newer vessels to this fleet.

At The time of the 2013 review it is impossible to tell whether the fleet has increased in size or not, or actually decreased, due to the size of the Bourbon fleet, which makes up at least part of this company. Maybe the information will be improved in the future.

At the February 2015 review it is evident from the company website that a number of ex Bourbon vessels have been added and well as a couple of more or less newbuildings. There are no ships on order specifically for the company.
