Words of a weary heart may not withstand fate, nor those of an angry spirit bring help. True warriors, we never utter a boast without first knowing how to achieve victory, as leaders, with courage.

Matching strength with purpose, through methodical planning, we deliver decisive outcomes – Always.



History

Raising sail and putting faith in the winds to lead them to unknown shores, the Vikings were the greatest explorers ever to strike out from their home shores. Heroes to some, daemons others – explorer or mercenary, the Vikings rose to face any challenge with courage, honor, pride and, when needed, brute force.

At Viking Exploration and Special Operations Group (VESOG), we carry on the ancient traditions of our namesake. In the spirit of adventure, we make our way on the boundless sea of stars. Whether discovering and charting new systems, wreaking havoc on those who prey upon the weak, or running a blockade to deliver sensitive cargo on target and on time – VESOG gets the job done.

VESOG began as frontier resource exploration, recovery and haulage partnership. We quickly realized it was impossible to shape the frontier if you couldn’t guarantee at least a small measure of security. Committed to independence, we saw a need to develop in-house capabilities to meet our security and logistics requirements. We have kept expanding ever since so we can carry more tools wherever we chose to strike out. As the scope of our business expanded, so has our vision.

With a firm belief in honor, integrity and excellence, VESOG prides itself on keeping its promises and fulfilling every contract. It is the industry leader in delivering executive outcomes.

With an untarnished reputation VESOG is well place to expand. We are currently open to applications for leaders and crew for our new exploration, security and salvage divisions, including science, flight engineering, gunnery positions aboard our newly christened Anvil Carrack-class vessels VALHALLA and EARDSTAPA. We also have opportunities for Warfare Officers and Marines in our security and assault units aboard our new Redeemer Gunship (THOR) and Reclaimer-class vessel NAGLAFARI. Other key openings include Electronic Warfare Officers, Data Operators, Intelligence Agents, Pilots, Field Engineers and Search and Rescue Technicians for our growing general purpose, logistics and combat service-support fleet, and Special Operators for or light and armored ground assault teams.

We support pioneers, adventures and explores.
