This was one of Her Majesty's ships.

Methinks the SAS will be en route.

Maybe the Brits will see why we need to get these guys. Seems they're hesitating.

More likely the SBS who are trained in counter-terrorist ops including oilrig assaults.

Comacchio Company (SBS) of 300 ranks based at RM Condor Arbroath, are responsible for fast reaction for nuclear weapons protection both in transit and on site. Also charged with the oilrig and ship protection duties at sea.

But the SAS will get the credit.
