As the year comes to an end we look back at a challenging year. Although the market for offshore service vessels has its own dynamics, which is independent of the crisis in the different markets our shipping company is operating, the developments in this market are on a fast phase track.
From mid-April 2018, Harlingen-based SeaZip Offshore Service and Amsterdam-based Deep Hydrography & Geophysics will jointly operate a DP1 Ice Class Survey and ROV vessel.
As the year of 2017 is being evaluated we can proudly publish our safety records. Despite the very difficult operating conditions in the offshore domain we can say that we maintained and improved our excellent safety culture and goals. Since the end of 2014 we did not have any lost-time incident cases.
After the opening of a new UK office earlier this year, SeaZip Offshore Service makes the next step in this local market with the expansion of their team.
Today we received feedback from Heerema Marine Contractors regarding the operations of our Seazip 4. Our captain and his team received an all over “ Excellent” feedback report for their job.
