Bahri Logistics, a unit of Saudi shipowner Bahri, has signed a newbuild agreement with Grandweld Shipyard to construct two advanced offshore service vessels.
The two vessels will be custom-built to meet the operational requirements of offshore activities at Ras Tanura Port, one of the world’s busiest energy hubs. Both vessels will be built at Grandweld Shipyard’s facility in Dubai Maritime City.
The vessels will be capable of performing multiple offshore support functions, including handling vessel clearance procedures with relevant authorities in accordance with applicable maritime regulations, managing crew changes, emergency response, maintenance assistance and technical support for vessels and offshore facilities, and inspection support while maintaining compliance with the highest international maritime and environmental standards.
The agreement further aligns with Bahri’s broader strategy to modernise its fleet, enhance technical capabilities, and adopt more energy-efficient and environmentally responsible designs.
“This agreement reflects Bahri Logistics’ unwavering commitment to expanding our offshore capabilities and advancing the Kingdom’s logistics infrastructure,” said Soror Basalom, president of Bahri Integrated Logistics.
