Noatum Maritime and The Arab Shipbuilding and Repair Yard Company (ASRY) have marked the operational start-up of their recently announced joint venture, ASRY Marine, which will provide an integrated range of marine services in Bahrain, with the arrival of four modern tugs at at the shipyard.
The arrival of the tugs, all part of Noatum Maritime’s existing fleet, was marked during a ceremony attended by representatives from various ministries, public bodies and leading industrial firms
The joint venture, announced in February this year, aims to expand the current marine service offering in Bahrain as well as across the wider region, and supports ASRY’s strategy to diversify its business base. Dr. Ahmed Al Abri, CEO, ASRY, said: “The new tugboats feature advanced technologies that will undoubtedly support and enhance our existing marine services, while also enabling the introduction of new ones.”
ASRY has also recently signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the global engineering company, AtkinsRéalis, which is expected to generate business for the Bahrain yard in the renewable power sector, particularly offshore wind. The collaboration will bring together ASRY’s long-standing expertise in marine repair and construction with AtkinsRéalis’s engineering strengths and experience in designing and delivering energy projects.
