Dammam, Saudi Arabia, 3 November 2025Synergy Ship Arabia, the Dammam-based offshore division of Synergy Marine Group, has taken full technical management of five self-propelled jack-up barges owned by Jana Marine, supporting ARAMCO’s offshore operations.

The vessels — Jana 505, 506, 507, 508, and 509 — expand Synergy’s offshore management portfolio in Saudi Arabia and reinforce its role in the GCC maritime sector. The company also oversees several other offshore support vessels operating under ARAMCO projects.

The partnership focuses on expanding local workforce participation, developing domestic supply chain capacity, and fostering long-term technological innovation.

Mohammad AlSubaie, CEO of Jana Marine, said the cooperation reflects a shared commitment to advance Saudi Arabia’s offshore sector in line with Vision 2030, while strengthening national skills and embedding sustainability in operations.

Jesper Kristensen, Group CEO of Synergy Marine Group, emphasized that managing ARAMCO-linked jack-up barges requires precision and responsibility, noting that Synergy aims to ensure lifecycle safety, efficiency, and sustainability across future retrofits and upgrades.

Headquartered in Singapore, Synergy Marine Group manages a fleet of more than 700 vessels, including LNG and LPG carriers, FSRUs, bulk carriers, container ships, and tankers. The company employs over 28,000 seafarers worldwide, providing integrated management services centered on safety, crew wellbeing, digitalization, and sustainability.

Based in Saudi Arabia, Jana Marine provides offshore marine services for ARAMCO and other Gulf clients. Its fleet includes jack-up barges, DP vessels, and crew boats, operating with a focus on reliability, safety, and future-ready performance aligned with Vision 2030.
