Project background
We have been working with
Worldwide Recruitment Solutions (WRS) as a rostered supplier of crew management services since 2013. We approached WRS regarding the management of two DP2 supply vessels operating offshore in Trinidad & Tobago for Shell, which at capacity included a significant number of crew and range of skills.
Challenges
Compliance was a major factor for us and was vital to the success of the project. We needed to partner with a workforce solutions company could provide an on the ground, local presence, ensuring that payroll, certification, compliance and manning of the vessels
was handled efficiently.
Solutions
WRS was able to assist on the ground with crew transport, payroll, certification, compliance and training. Drawing on its many years of experience in the industry and vast database of personnel, the WRS team were able to ensure the crew management process was run smoothly and adhered to all relevant maritime regulations.
Future
WRS continue to crew manage vessels for us today, with monthly crew changes and yearly audits undertaken by
Bourbon, along with monthly internal WRS audits of vessel crew, to ensure up-to-date certification and compliance.
