Our Experience
Foss also supports upstream oilfield development projects with full project management and marine logistics solutions. Specializing in upstream development work in extreme environments and in delivering cargo to remote sites, we provide marine transportation of platform topsides, platform cargo, construction cargo and modules.
For one successful project, Foss delivered 36 pre-fabricated modules that were part of a multi-year sealift of specialized structures and components needed to construct an oil production facility at a remote project site in the Russian Far East. The project was safely completed ahead of schedule, despite complex logistical requirements and many environmental challenges such as ice, harsh storms, and turbulent sea conditions.
Oil and gas customers rely on Foss to put together the best total project management and logistics solutions for terminal services and operations, ship management, air cargo, and a variety of marine support vessels.
