Operational Context
The West Nile Delta development is publicly reported as a major offshore gas programme in Egypt. Max Marine's role was local operational support: crew logistics, agency, documentation, port passes, customs coordination and ground movements through Egyptian gateways.
Client Challenge
Continuous offshore activity depends on reliable crew rotations and documentation. Missed airport connections, delayed passes or slow clearances can affect rig readiness, so the client needed a local team that could coordinate movements before each rotation reached the port.
Max Marine Scope
Execution Model
The operating model joined crew logistics, immigration support, port agency and customs coordination into one local workflow across two Egyptian gateways.
Max Marine coordinated crew rotations through Alexandria and Port Said, preparing documentation ahead of each movement and connecting airport transfers, immigration support, port agency and customs coordination so offshore personnel movements remained aligned with the drilling schedule.
Assets & Capabilities Used
Results & Operational Value
BP's offshore programme received coordinated crew-logistics and agency support through two Egyptian gateways, reducing the risk of disconnected immigration, port, transport and customs workstreams.
