Emanuele Lauro’s Scorpio Group has broken into the anchor handler market as part of a project targeting the broader offshore support vessel (OSV) sector.
Scorpio Offshore has swooped for two anchor handling tug supply vessels formerly in the hands of Sanko Steamship to add to its previously unreported moves in the crew boat market.
While the company is presently privately owned and financed, it is likely to open up to outside investors in future, potentially following siblings Scorpio Tankers and Scorpio Bulkers to the public markets.
