Overview
Singapore is the headquarters of Marine Layup Services Pte Ltd. As part of our services on offer, we have partnered up with key companies within the Asian region to increase the quality of service we can offer. We support our lay-up partners with oil & gas industry standard procedures giving the customer a consistent quality of service.
We have 40+ years of experience undertaking maritime activities globally. Clients who want to stay longer can request additional corrosion protection, so we introduced vapour corrosion inhibitors (VCI) and shrink wrap services.
Layup Locations in Singapore
Singapore offers the most secure location for lay-up activities in South East Asia; however, this does come at a tremendous financial expense. Cold lay-up is usually limited to specific sites, and minimum manning is usually required onboard.
Singapore provides limited space for vessel lay-up; however, the market is constantly changing. A few wharves are available but depend upon the vessel’s size and draft. If you have a high-value asset, it is probably worth exploring Singapore. If additional repair work is required, this increases the chances of securing a berth. There are also more cost-effective options in Indonesia & Malaysia, so check out those pages.
