Vallianz OSVs to Service COOEC Operations

Under the agreement, Vallianz will provide certain offshore support vessels, including submersible launch vessels, to support COOEC’s offshore construction activities and operations. The vessels will be made available to COOEC either by charter, or through the award of a project sub-contracted to Vallianz.  

COOEC is also one of the largest EPCI (engineering, procurement, construction and installation) contractors for offshore oil and gas exploration and production projects in the Asia-Pacific region. It has a footprint that extends throughout China, South East Asia, Australasia, and the Middle East.

COOEC is a subsidiary of China National Offshore Oil Corporation (CNOOC), the largest offshore oil and gas producer in China and the third largest national oil company in China focusing on the exploitation, exploration and development of crude oil and natural gas.  

“This collaboration with COOEC marks a major milestone in Vallianz’s progress to become a leading global player in the rapidly growing offshore marine industry,” said Darren Yeo, Vallianz CEO.  

“Partnering COOEC will present Vallianz with an enormous opportunity to enter the vast offshore oil and gas industry in China. With our young and modern fleet and ability to provide integrated offshore marine solutions, we believe Vallianz is primed to support COOEC’s offshore projects in China and the region.”
