Qatar’s burgeoning energy sector, particularly the North Field and Al-Shaheen projects, is expected to significantly boost LNG production, making reliable, specialized logistics support a necessity. The newly formed partnership between Cargostore and HALEYS comes at a crucial juncture. As the country looks to meet its ambitious production goals, seamless access to high-quality containers for offshore operations will be indispensable.
At the heart of this alliance lies the perfect blend of global reach and local expertise. Cargostore, with its extensive supply network across more than 25 countries, brings with it unparalleled experience in delivering container solutions tailored for the offshore sector. HALEYS, a Qatari-based firm with deep roots in the local market, offers the on-the-ground know-how necessary to meet the stringent demands of Qatar’s energy sector. HALEYS specialized in offering premium solutions, including engineering design, marine and offshore support, certified structural steel fabrication and repair, equipment rental, inspection, testing, calibration and integrated maintenance services.
A Seamless Solution for Offshore Operators
This partnership offers a much-needed lifeline to companies operating in Qatar’s offshore fields. For these businesses, which are often tasked with managing the logistics of transporting equipment and hazardous materials, the stakes are high.
