The year was 2010, and Marcap took a risk to make its mark in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. With a strong foundation already established in the UAE's maritime industry, Marcap was ready to extend its reach, guided by strong leadership. At the right moment 15 years ago, the company embarked on this new chapter, creating Saudi Marcap.

Marcap Saudi’s journey began with a significant milestone, being awarded by Saudi Aramco as a trusted marine contractor. Their inaugural project involved the stabilization of six pipelines in the shallow waters, a demanding task that set the course for the company’s future in the region. This project served as a declaration of Marcap's capabilities and a bold step into a promising market.

In the 15 years since that pivotal moment, Marcap Saudi has grown exponentially. Offices were established in Dammam, Khafji, and Ras Tanura, forming a strategic triangle that ensured the team was always where they needed to be. This presence on the ground and wide client network, coupled with a deep understanding of local market dynamics, has made Marcap Saudi the top-choice partner for vessel owners seeking to charter in the area.

Among the fleet, two meticulously designed and built pilot boats for Aramco’s needs stand out, their ten-year service a testament to Marcap’s commitment and expertise. Fast crew boats, AHTS vessels, and DP2 vessels have also played their roles, securing Marcap’s reputation as a leading marine operator capable of fulfilling the most complex requirements.

The demand within Saudi Arabia grew alongside Marcap’s reputation, and the company’s established procedures, strong regulations, and understanding of the main two clients, Aramco and KJO, became vital assets. These frameworks minimized challenges and translated into substantial cost savings for other vessel owners, who trust Marcap with the management. As a vessel owner itself, with the full fleet consistently operational, the company has a deep understanding of vessel care, supported by a dedicated team that excels in maintaining high standards of service and reliability.

Throughout the journey, Marcap Saudi has remained unwaveringly committed to health, safety, and environmental standards. There have been no major accidents, as the company keeps a strict eye on seafarers' safety and holds it as a priority.

Looking ahead, Marcap Saudi is ready to expand further, confident in its ability to embrace new vessels and challenges. The market demand within Saudi Arabia is booming, and Marcap is prepared to meet that demand with confidence and a strategic, well-informed approach. As Marcap in KSA celebrates 15 glorious years, it can be confidently declared that Marcap Saudi is a reliable partner, deeply woven into the fabric of the Saudi maritime industry.
