UAE based one of the largest operator of advanced self-propelled self-elevating support vessels, Gulf Marine Services (GMS), has been awarded a contract by an International EPC Contractor

GMS announces today that, the award of a 6.5-month contract (firm period plus options to extend) for a K-Class (Small) vessel.  

According to SESV’s operator, the customer is an international EPC contractor, for which GMS will provide support for offshore activities on behalf of a  national oil company.  

The work will be undertaken in  territorial waters, where the vessel has already been mobilized for the project.
