In 2023 GLO Marine solidified its position as a Leading End-to-End Service Provider on the European Retrofit Market

As we still bid farewell to 2023, it’s time to reflect on a year that has been nothing short of challenging for us at GLO Marine. It was a year marked by significant strides in our journey, setting new benchmarks in the maritime industry.

Here’s an in-depth look at our key achievements and how they’ve shaped our year: 

A Leap in Project Delivery 

In 2023, GLO Marine achieved an important performance by doubling the number of projects delivered, recording an 80% increase over 2022. This increase is not just in numbers, but also in the complexity and scale of the projects we have undertaken. From complex upgrades to advanced mobilisation projects, our team has demonstrated its skills and dedication, cementing our reputation as a leader in maritime solutions.

Strategic Expansion: A New Office in Mangalia, Constanța 

2023 saw us expand our geographical footprint with the opening of a new office in Mangalia, Constanța. This strategic move not only brings us closer to key maritime hubs but also enhances our operational capabilities. The new office, our second in Romania, is equipped with state-of-the-art facilities and a team of experts, ready to take on the challenges of the dynamic maritime sector. 

Team growth and our own site installation team 

Our team grew by an impressive 25% this year, bringing in fresh talent across various departments. In a significant development, we established our own dedicated site installation team, comprising expert pipe fitters and welders. This initiative has enabled us to enhance our service quality and efficiency, particularly in turnkey retrofit installation projects. The team’s expertise was instrumental in successfully delivering 18 turnkey retrofit installation projects this year, each meeting our high standards of precision and excellence. 

Delivering Conversions & Mobilisations for the Offshore Sector

Our foray into the offshore sector was marked by the successful delivery of 16 mobilization projects for 9 offshore operators. These projects varied in scope and complexity, showcasing our ability to adapt and deliver tailored solutions. Our success in the offshore sector underscores our versatility and our commitment to meeting the unique needs of this challenging industry. 

Beyond Numbers: A Focus on Quality and Efficiency of Execution 

While our growth in numbers is significant, what truly sets us apart is our focus on quality and efficiency. Each project we undertook in 2023 was approached with a mindset to innovate and exceed expectations. Our turnkey solutions, known for their efficiency and reliability, have been a game-changer for many of our clients, helping them navigate with ease the complexities of maritime operations.
