November 3, 2025 – ABL has been awarded a work order by Chevron Thailand Exploration and Production, Chevron Offshore (Thailand), and Chevron Pattani to provide marine warranty survey (MWS) and third-party support services for upcoming offshore operations in the Gulf of Thailand.

Under the contract, ABL will handle MWS services for wellhead platform installations, which include conducting document reviews, suitability surveys, loadout and towage approvals, and lifting installation assessments. ABL’s Thailand operations will lead project execution, supported by its regional offices in Malaysia and Singapore.

Mingkwan Surasorn, ABL’s Country Manager in Thailand, commented, “With the competency of our ABL team across the APAC region and our local expertise in Thailand, we are uniquely positioned to provide a diverse scope of work.”

Simon Healy, Regional Managing Director for Asia Pacific at ABL, added that ABL’s integrated approach—combining marine warranty, DP assurance, and diving audits—“enables safer, smarter operations” across Chevron’s Gulf of Thailand activities.
