Vessel Attendance & Offshore Support Offshore Operations Support

# Integrated Offshore Support for TechnipFMC on the NEA/NI Project

On TechnipFMC's NEA/NI subsea tieback, an Energean-operated gas development off Abu Qir, connecting new offshore wells back to the Abu Qir hub, TechnipFMC delivered the integrated subsea scope while Max Marine provided one Egyptian operations structure for vessel attendance, crew movements, husbandry, supplies, transport and shore-side support.

## Operational Context

NEA/NI is a subsea tieback development in the Mediterranean off Abu Qir, delivered by TechnipFMC under an integrated EPCI contract covering subsea trees and controls, manifolds and foundations, tie-in spools and jumpers, flexible and rigid flowlines, umbilicals, and offshore installation through hook-up and pre-commissioning. Supporting that campaign meant vessel calls, crew rotations, local procurement, transport and base support all had to move together through one accountable local desk.

## Client Challenge

The risk was fragmentation. If agency, crew logistics, supplies and shore support were split across separate providers, the project would have faced slower handovers, weaker visibility and more operational follow-up for the client team.

## Max Marine Scope

1

Vessel attendance and port agency coordination

2

Crew changes and airport-to-vessel transfers

3

Husbandry and offshore operational support

4

Port, customs and terminal liaison

5

Stores, provisions and local procurement

6

Logistics-base and office support

7

Rental vehicles for personnel movements

8

Rental equipment where required

## Execution Model

One Max Marine point of coordination connected the port desk, crew logistics, procurement, transport and base-support teams. That model reduced the number of handovers the client had to manage during live offshore operations.

Max Marine ran the scope through one operations channel. The agency desk handled vessel calls and port liaison, while the same structure coordinated crew transfers, stores, provisions, vehicles, equipment and office support at the base.

## Assets & Capabilities Used

North Sea Atlantic, offshore construction vessel

VOS Principle, walk-to-work support vessel

Happy Dynamic, construction & accommodation vessel

Link Star, offshore support vessel

Horizon Enabler, subsea support vessel

Port agency desk, crew logistics and base support

## Results & Operational Value

The NEA/NI campaign received a single local support structure for vessel calls, crew movements and shore-side logistics, reducing day-to-day coordination load on the client team.

Construction and support vessels on the NEA/NI campaign were attended through one local desk.

The client worked through one local coordination structure for multiple service lines.

Marine and shore-side requirements were handled under the same operational workflow.

The relationship builds on earlier support for Technip Offshore UK on Burullus Phase VIII A, where six vessels, six supply ships and three barges were attended through Abu Qir and El Maadia Port.
