Malaysian contract for EnerMech

UK engineering group EnerMech has won a multi-million pound five year contract to provide crane operators in Malaysia.

EnerMech will provide training services and supply up to 70 offshore crane operators for a major oil and gas operator on projects located offshore in the South China Sea. As part of its build up for the contract it will install a crane simulator at its Kemaman base in east Malaysia for the assessment and training of offshore crane operators assigned to the contract.

EnerMech international director John Morrison said: “This is our first long-term mechanical handling services contract award in Malaysia and it is a strategically important breakthrough for EnerMech.”

EnerMech senior business development manager Amir Nazer Adam added: “The upskilling of local staff, speed of mobilisation and our strong track record in cranes and lifting training and engineering services, were integral in securing this contract. We will create up to 70 positions and by deploying our state-of-the-art crane simulator we will ensure our local teams are trained and assessed to international standards.”
