Viking Standby used to be part
of the Norwegian Company, Viking Supply but when that company sold their
support vessels to Trico the standby vessels were left on their own,
operating out of their base at Montrose.
This company had purchased the
old Cam Shipping fleet and as a result has a pretty diverse set of ships
on their books some of them reaching the end of the useful life. They are
however the proud owners of the Viking Provider, as substantial craft in
the modern mould which will doubtless be their blueprint for the future.
In the early part of 2003
BUE and Viking became one company and Viking moved their offices from
Montrose to Aberdeen. A new colour scheme was put in place with a variety
of results due to the interpretations of those doing the painting.
During the 4th quarter of 2004 there was a
further change in the ownership of the this company when the Viking part
bought out the BUE part - we think.
