Marine Construction Management
Decades of Hands-On Execution and Seamless Delivery.
What sets OCS apart is not just our engineering depth, but field-proven marine construction management capability. Our core team comprises veterans of McDermott—industry leaders during the peak era of offshore development in Asia Pacific. These are professionals who’ve spent their careers delivering “hard money” projects in some of the most challenging marine environments, earning the kind of operational judgment and precision that can’t be learned from manuals.
At OCS, this hands-on legacy drives how we train our next generation of engineers and field specialists. It defines our company culture: pragmatic, delivery-focused, and relentlessly client-oriented. Our construction managers ensure that what’s engineered in the office is executable offshore, with minimum rework, maximum safety, and full alignment with client objectives.
Our construction management expertise forms the backbone of everything we do—enabling tighter coordination between our engineering, project teams, and strategic equipment units. Our in-house technicians are trained on every piece of OCS equipment to ensure flawless execution with clear communication and zero disconnect between design intent and field delivery.
With our versatile Utility Barge UB-01 “Miss Pennie” band a suite of strategic marine support equipment, we are uniquely positioned to take on turnkey scopes and specialist packages alike—from platform installations to nearshore pipeline landings.
