Transforming Challenges to Triumph: Wintermar's Journey in the Offshore Support Vessel Industry

Wintermar's Journey in Offshore Support Vessels

Wintermar, once a humble tug and barge operator, has evolved into a leading regional player in the Offshore Support Vessel (OSV) industry. With over 5 decades of experience, the Company has expanded its operations to more than 13 countries over the years and currently serves a wide range of multinational clients. Wintermar has demonstrated resilience and adaptability in the face of industry challenges, focusing on long-term sustainability and continuous improvement.

‍

Throughout our journey of more than 50 years, Wintermar has consistently gained a deeper understanding of the changes impacting the offshore business, along with the ability to adapt by aligning our services in response to these changes. As a result, the Company has bounced back from the downturn in the oil and gas industry in recent years, with a strong balance sheet, a more efficient fleet, and a supportive shore team. Our focus on long-term sustainability has enabled us to build strength in the most crucial aspects of our business and create value for all our stakeholders. Wintermar has not only overcome past challenges but also created an exceptional track record of serving multinational clients.
