The solution fills a gap in the market which allows operators to pay for only what they need
Doha Marine Services (DMS), a leading offshore support vessel company, has seen a successful start to its ‘Supply on Demand’ solutions and now runs a twice-weekly sailing schedule.
‘Supply on Demand’ by DMS provides marine solutions on a pay-as-you-go basis, avoiding the need for customers to enter into restrictive contracts with their offshore service providers.
The ‘Supply on Demand’ solution allows customers to control their cargo movement from booking to post-transit analysis. Customers receive a dashboard where they can create bookings, track cargo and monitor or adapt routes to reduce costs, and crucially, they are only charged for the cargo they transport.
“The “Supply on Demand” solution fills a gap in the market which allows operators to pay for only what they need. The model optimizes efficiency through better utilization of vessel space, improved route planning and reduced fuel consumption, all in real-time,” commented Gerben Nijboer, General Manager, DMS.
‘Supply on Demand’s pilot began in Qatar in January 2021, with vessels moving cargo to the North and East fields. The number of vessels included in the offering will increase in line with demand for the service and as customers’ operational needs require. All vessels included in the service offering meet clients’ marine assurance requirements.
Founded in Qatar in 1990, Doha Marine Services is a leading offshore support vessel company that provides critical logistics support and marine solutions to the Qatar energy industry.
