The VLT/FLAMES Tarantula Survey (Evans et al. 2011) identified a group of slowly-rotating nitrogen-rich O-type stars that cannot be explained by current evolutionary models. Here we present high-quality VLT/UVES observations of four of these stars that allow a detailed quantitative spectroscopic analysis. We present the analysis of the spectra with a genetic algorithm, and discuss the future steps to be taken to further investigate the cause of the nitrogen enrichment.
