Operational context
The project environment
The VALARIS DS-12 campaign in Egypt's Mediterranean basin requires continuous shore support. The Alexandria base functions as an operating extension of the drillship, connecting equipment movements, manpower, lifting activity, waste, transport, accommodation and customs-related logistics while the offshore schedule continues.
Client requirement
The operational challenge
The live campaign requires heavy and time-sensitive activity to be supported without reducing safety control. Equipment staging, lifting, transport, waste, accommodation and customs-related logistics must remain coordinated as requirements change.
Execution structure
How the scope was coordinated
A dedicated site team connects lifting, yard activity, welfare, waste, transport and customs-related logistics, keeping decisions close to the live operation.
Max Marine is operating the support structure through a dedicated site team, coordinating certified lifting support, drillship-to-shore equipment movements, transport, waste handling, accommodation and customs-related logistics for the ongoing campaign.
