Qatar-based Sea Horizon will cover commercial and support representation as well as project management support during project execution, serving clients in the UAE, Qatar and Saudi Arabia.

The companies said the memorandum of understanding enables Netherlands-based Jumbo Offshore to offer increased support during the significant offshore expansion planned in the Middle East in the coming years. 

Sea Horizon Offshore CEO Danial Kaabi, said: “Through this MoU, we will provide the Middle East region with greater access to safe, high quality transport and installation (T&I) solutions. Jumbo Offshore represents considerable added value to regional operators. Currently, much of the transport and installation work carried out in the region is performed using a combination of barge and lifting vessel. Jumbo Offshore’s vessels are ideally suited to perform the entire T&I scope from a single platform, offering a significant boost to efficiency.”

The Jumbo Offshore fleet includes a pair of DP2 vessels with 1,800 tonne lifting capacities, Fairplayer and Jumbo Javelin, with scope to support with topside construction, light  flex-lay, mooring installation, module installation, and more.
