Bulgaria, in line with its #BOURBONINMOTION

Bourbon Marine & Logistics is
pleased to announce that it has been awarded by SHELL its first
integrated logistics contract for the support of its exploration
campaign in Black Sea, Bulgaria, in partnership with Bulgarian
operator Bon Marine. The project scope covers the full logistics
solution project management, offering for the first time both
Marine logistics together with shore logistics: marine services,
logistics base, warehousing, port facilities, cargo carrying units,
waste management, customs clearance, etc.
Bourbon Marine & Logistics
will jointly perform the services with its partner Bon Marine and
will operate from Varna (Bulgaria). Working with a strong local
partner is fully part of Bourbon Marine & Logistics local
content strategy. Two large supply vessels will be dedicated to the
project and as well as the latest digital data management
tools.
Bourbon Marine & Logistics
proposal for an integrated end-to-end solution is in line with
SHELL's willingness to pilot a light-footprint strategy in
exploration operations with more risk-sharing with its
subcontractors.
The drilling operation is scheduled
to start early April and should last about 3 to 4 months.
"Providing
integrated logistics services for offshore operations, BOURBON
will ensure, with its partner Bon Marine, that the
entire logistics chain of SHELL exploration campaign is
successfully delivered on time, efficiently, while meeting the
highest safety standards. We are proud to support SHELL in this new
exploration strategy. This contract illustrates the relevance of
our #BOURBONINMOTION
strategic plan, going a step forward in the creation of new
services to accompany our clients' evolving needs" commented Victor Chevallier, Chief
