Sembmarine Establishes Facilities in Lowestoft and Aberdeen

Offshore engineering, construction and support services specialist Sembmarine SLP has established new facilities in Lowestoft and Aberdeen.

Offshore Services has wide ranging service capabilities and typically becomes involved at the very early stages of a contract award, identifying the scope of works, building the high level plan and generating the construct/deconstruct work packs.

In Aberdeen the company has identified a growing number of opportunities to provide a comprehensive front-end engineering design [FEED] service to the offshore oil, gas and wind energy sectors, and is planning to open an office in early 2014 to provide this service. FEED is increasingly being used by the operating companies which have rights and licences to develop or enhance major offshore infrastructure projects as a way of quantifying project risk.

Sembmarine SLP Managing Director Paul Thomson said: “With over 40 years of engineering experience in offshore energy, we are planning to take advantage of the many opportunities which are currently coming to the fore in the North Sea. My colleagues and I believe the investment in these new facilities in Lowestoft and Aberdeen will play an important role in the company’s continued growth.”
