The crisis in the offshore supply vessel market has lead to a USD 32 million loss in the third quarter of 2015, according to the carrier's third quarter interim report.

According to Viking's accounts, the weak market for the carrier's ships means that the group's liquidity is 'strained' and therefore there's a risk that the group will not be able to meet its loan agreement obligations. According to the accounts, Viking is in dialog with lenders in order to secure a stable, long-term financial situation.
