Viking Seatech and Seacroft Marine Consultants have formed an alliance in the wake of a depressed oil price environment.
According to the deal, the pair will be able to sub-contract the other. The duo are targeting the rig services market.
Michael Cowlam, Seacroft’s technical director, said: “Collaboration and innovative solutions are absolutely key in the current oil and gas climate and we are delighted to have joined forces with Viking SeaTech to share our expertise and work together in a mutually beneficial way.
“Combining our knowledge in the industry with Viking SeaTech’s will support us both in the future and offer our clients an even more varied range of services and resources, along with an unparalleled combination of experience and skillsets. Our first rig move with Viking SeaTech was a great success and we are looking forward to working on future projects with them.
John Dick , Viking SeaTech, North Sea region leader, added: “Viking SeaTech are looking forward to working with Seacroft Marine to deliver first class services to our customers. Through combining SeaCroft’s marine consultancy expertise with our specialist marine capabilities and knowledge our customer base will benefit from a broader and stronger service offering. It is clear to us that in certain circumstances a more integrated offering is required and that is exactly what this collaboration is all about.”
