On January 24, 2020, the crew of the 'Polar King' initiated a medical evacuation while navigating the Menorca Canal. Promptly responding to the emergency, Salvamento Marítimo dispatched the 'Salvamar Aldebarán' to the scene. The rescue vessel successfully retrieved the patient and transported him to the port of Ciutadella, ensuring he received immediate medical attention at a local hospital for further treatment.

GC Rieber Shipping has received a significant boost following Nexans Skagerrak's decision to exercise a 13-month option on the construction support vessel Polar King. This follows a previous contract signed in March 2017 for an initial period of eight and a half months, set to commence in January of the same year. With the recent option executed, Polar King is now secured for operations until September 2018, with additional extension options available for further commitment. The Polar King, recognized for its versatility and reliability, will engage in a variety of underwater tasks, including survey work, trenching, and cable laying across strategic locations such as Norway, the North Sea, the Mediterranean, and parts of Canada. This expansion solidifies the ongoing partnership between Nexans and GC Rieber, highlighting the growing demand for subsea services in the maritime industry.
