Subsea Oil & Gas
SUBSEA OIL & GAS
From towheads to wellhead protection structures, and manifolds and ROVs – subsea oil and gas projects need experienced, specialist logistics. We’ve already transported in excess of 10,000 tonnes of umbilical on over 250 reels.
Taking our clients’ products from A to B means we’re helping to accelerate first oil, and we’re determined to add immediate value in every project.
Technip, Subsea 7, Boskalis and Ocean Installer already know our multi-disciplined team finds innovative ways to overcome the most complex challenges. Our team’s been working in the North Sea for many years, and if a solution doesn’t exist yet, we’ll develop it and use those learnings in future projects.
OFFSHORE INVENTORY
We can also use our fleet of specialist flat-top barges for offshore oil and gas construction, and have the widest range of support services to get the best from that equipment. This includes complex scheduling and long-term storage, all supported by in-house engineering and dedicated project managers.
CASE STUDY
BAHR ESSALAM
Rapid turnaround of design and installation of fastenings that reduced time and costs … an end-to-end service ensuring confidence, with comms and documentation always delivered to the highest standards.
MARINE TEAM
Having worked in this sector for more than 20 years, our team of naval architects, marine engineers and onshore/offshore heavy lift specialists know what’s needed to make a project successful.
Our commercial leads also have hands-on experience, and we recognise that many oil and gas teams are transitioning to offshore renewables. We’re well-aligned to support that change in supply.
We provide project managers who’ve been involved from the earliest planning stages, ensuring critical insights that let whole teams adapt quickly on site if anything changes.
