JFO Strengthens Middle East Footprint

Offshore engineering specialist James Fisher Offshore (JFO) has established bases in Saudi Arabia and Dubai.

JFO said that its commitment to the region follows a series of project wins for its abrasive cutting solution that will be resourced and managed in country.

Ross Anderson, regional manager – Middle East, said: “Our JFO hub in al-Khobar in the Saudi Kingdom not only allows us to engage with project supply chains and relevant stakeholders, but from this base we can deploy equipment locally, including our hydraulic winches, subsea demolition tools and advanced abrasive cutting system. We are also providing in region expertise and full project support.

“Similarly, from our Dubai office we are providing engineering support, account management, equipment and personnel mobilisation.

“Our ability to support our clients and trade from these regional bases, streamlines the commercial process, reduces mobilisation time and costs and provides assurance to our customers of our commitment and ability to deliver as their supporting contractor.”
