Kim Heng outlines fleet investments

Kim Heng Group deputy chief executive for marine and offshore, Justin Tan, talks about the advantages of operating a fleet of offshore support and construction barges to deliver on projects in the oil, gas and renewable energy sectors.

During an interview at Riviera’s Offshore Support Journal Conference, Asia 2024, held in Singapore in September, he explains the future investment strategy for the fleet and other assets for organic growth.

Kim Heng owns a fleet of more than 35 vessels with a mixture of support vessels, workboats, construction barges and anchor handlers.

The Singapore-based company is diversifying into operating geotechnical survey vessels to engage with the offshore windfarm sector and is also investing in assets for the growing cable-laying sector. This includes converting a vessel into a geotechnical survey ship.
