With more than 3 000kms of coastline and 294,2 million tons of cargo passing through our ports every year, South Africa is a hub of economic marine activity, requiring offshore assistance as well as harbour port solutions.
With vessels at sea often manned by crews of 15 – 20 people, offshore solutions such as supplies, salvage operations and transporting crew members to shore are a necessity. For efficiency and effective solutions, Servest provides a team tailored to the needs of the vessel, offering world-class solutions.
Some of the services offered by Servest’s specialised marine team include,
Supplying spares
While out at sea, vessels often face rough sea conditions, resulting in severe wear and tear along with the need for repairs while at sea. Often specialised spares and equipment are needed to complete the job. The Servest team will source the right spares and equipment, and ferry them out to sea, or supply them at a local port.
Dedicated crew transportation services
Some vessels spend months at a time travelling across the ocean, crew members can become ill, injured or would simply like to spend some time at a local port. To assist these vessels, a dedicated ship can ferry crew members to the port.
Towing and diving operations
Contract charter services for offshore transport, towing services and diving support in the case of lost cargo or damage to the hull of a vessel.
Fresh water supply
When crew members spend prolonged time on board, there is a need for basic necessities, such as fresh water. Servest has specialised teams and vessels ready to head out and supply ships with freshwater tanks.
