Offshore industry veteran Tom Ehret has emerged as the buyer of four DP3-rated offshore construction vessels from the Sea Trucks Group.

The modern vessels represent the first tonnage in the fleet of Ehret’s new Dubai-based start-up named Telford Offshore.

Last week the Dutch group said the Jascon 25 (built 2009), Jascon 28 (built 2007), Jascon 31 (built 2010) and the Jascon 34 (built 2014) had been transferred to a new owner by bondholder appointed receivers.
