Oil and Gas
Our extensive network, logistics experts and integrated digitalization tools support solution design so that our clients can navigate the challenges of today’s complex global supply chains.
The oil and gas industry focuses on the full spectrum of energy production, from exploration to delivery, with specialized equipment for each phase.
Focus areas
- Onshore, offshore and sub-sea
- Upstream: exploration, development, production (oil rigs, FPSOs, FSOs, FLNG, etc.)
- Midstream: processing, storing, transporting (pipelines, etc.)
- Downstream: more details in the petrochemical vertical
Value proposition
- We empower EPCs, OEMs and various operators with tailored services that uphold the highest industry standards, ensuring asset optimization from inception to construction
- Rapid delivery of essential components—ensuring safe, timely and industry-compliant global resupply and equipment transport.

The Challenges
- Stringently sequenced delivery requirements
- Challenging local import requirements
- Restrictive project schedule
- Requirement for dynamic and differing delivery solutions due to delayed ground works
Project Execution
The rig had to be delivered in sequence, starting with the camp facilities for the rig crew and main rig substructure, followed by components such as draw works, mud pumps, and tanks, before ending with the drill pipes.
In addition to the importance of the sequencing, the transit times needed to be factored to ensure timely collection and uninterrupted arrival of these components at the site in order to support the construction sequence as well as prevent site congestion and waiting time.

Industry: Oil and gas
Client: Subsea 7 (Singapore) Pte Ltd
Project Owner: Korea National Oil Corporation
Cargo: 2x flow line reels, 1x umbilical reel, accessories
Volume: 1,973 FRT in total
Max. Heavy Lift: 245 MT






Project Execution
Construction of the platform took place at MMHE’s yard in Pasir Gudang, a city in the state of Johor. Once finalized, the platform was towed to its final destination in the Malikai oil field, about 100 kilometers off of Sabah, Malaysia.
The platform is working in water about 500 meters deep and is moored securely in place by specially coated tendons.
This case study describes the transportation of the abovementioned tendons from the special coating facility in New Iberia, Louisiana, USA to Pasir Gudang, Malaysia.
Client: TMJV Technip / MMHE
Preparation Period: Aug. 2014 to Dec. 2015
Investment: Approx. USD 2,972,000
Volume: Approx. 4,020 FRT
Origin and Destination: From USA to Malaysia




The Highlights
- HSE Requirements—beyond the strict standard
- Technical Requirements—Transport engineering
- Vast Distance—Teams in multiple time zones
- Critical Move—Tug and barge alongside vessel offshore
- Zero Incidents—No harm to persons and cargo
Project Execution
The modules are helping to operate a Rigless Intervention System that serves to facilitate the replacement of worn or failed caisson-based artificial lift systems deployed at the project site.
Whereas the actual transportation of the accommodation modules was rather straight forward and nothing out of the ordinary, the challenge was found by meeting SBM Offshore’s and Shell’s stringent requirements in regard to health, safety and environment (HSE) and engineering.
HSE Requirements: Beyond the strict standard
Technical Requirements: Transport engineering
Vast Distance: Teams in multiple time zones
Critical Move: Tug and barge alongside vessel offshore
Zero Incidents: No harm to persons and cargo
