The alliance aims to deliver integrated project management, engineering, transport and installation services to the offshore sector
Intermoor, Acteon’s Moorings and Anchors business line, and Jumbo Offshore, offshore transportation and installation specialists, have allied to jointly deliver fully integrated project management, engineering, transport and installation services to the offshore oil and gas sectors, as well as floating wind
The partnership combines Intermoor's expertise in mooring systems and offshore engineering with Jumbo Offshore's capabilities in heavy-lift transport and mooring installation.
The alliance unites strengths to provide an end-to-end solution across the offshore moorings lifecycle, adapting efficiency, minimising risk and enhancing schedule certainty for offshore campaigns.
The alliance supports a wide range of floating platforms, including FPSOs, FLNGs, FSRUs and floating wind turbine foundations. The partnership provides enhanced operational control and safety, supported by deep-water experience and proprietary technologies, such as Intermoor's suction embedded plate anchor.
David McGuire, EVP of Intermoor at Acteon, said, “As offshore projects grow in scale and complexity, collaboration becomes essential. This alliance reflects a shared commitment to delivering smarter, more integrated solutions that reduce interfaces and creates an offering that delivers on our customers’ requests. By combining our mooring expertise with Jumbo Offshore’s installation and transport capabilities, we’re setting a new standard for offshore mooring execution.”
Jumbo Offshore will front the pre-lay of deep water mooring systems using its DP2 Heavy Lift Crane Vessels, while Intermoor will lead tow-out, station keeping, and hook-up operations.
Together, the companies will provide project management and engineering services, with chartering of third-party assets such as anchor handlers and tugs.
Brian Boutkan, director of Commerce at Jumbo Offshore, said, “This partnership is built on mutual respect and a shared vision for the future of offshore energy and specifically the deep-water mooring market. By integrating our services, we’re eliminating bottlenecks and delivering a safer, more predictable pathway from planning to execution. It’s a win-win for operators, developers, and the industry at large.”
