Singapore's Miclyn Express Offshore's Thai J/V partner, Uniwise Offshore, wins Chevron marine support contract for Gulf of Thailand operations

The 3 year firm contract with plus 2 x 1 year extension options is to provide coil tubing marine support services to Chevron`s production activities in the Gulf of Thailand.

Uniwise Offshore will purchase a Platform Supply Vessel currently under construction in a Chinese Shipyard, to fulfil the service requirements. The vessel will commence operation in October 2012.

The new contract is a continuation of a long standing relationship with Chevron in the region. CEO Diederik de Boer said, “This new vessel represents our sixth Offshore Service Vessel servicing Chevron in the Gulf of Thailand. We have been able to leverage off our strong operating track record in Crew/Utility Vessels to further increase our exposure to Chevron’s OSV operations. We look forward to further developing our relationship with Chevron and continuing to service them with operational excellence”.
