Doha Marine Services (DMS), a leading offshore support vessel company, has seen a successful start to its “Supply on Demand” solution and is now publishing its twice weekly sailing schedule, with services sailing every Monday and Thursday.

Launched on January 10, 2021, “Supply on Demand” by DMS provides marine solutions on a pay-as-you-go basis, avoiding the need for customers to enter into restrictive contracts with their offshore service providers.

The “Supply on Demand” solution allows customers to control their cargo movement from booking to post-transit analysis. Customers receive a dashboard where they can create bookings, track cargo and monitor or adapt routes to reduce costs, and crucially, they are only charged for the cargo they transport.

Speaking on the announcement, Gerben Nijboer, General Manager, DMS said:

“The “Supply on Demand” solution fills a gap in the market which allows operators to pay for only what they need. The model optimises efficiency through better utilisation of vessel space, improved route planning and reduced fuel consumption, all in real-time.

“Transformative technology, like “Supply on Demand”, is a crucial way for the offshore sector to adapt to the realities of the changing environment we operate in. Digitisation and consolidation of services must be adopted by the OSV industry at large to weather economic volatilities, create efficiencies, and provide value and oversight to our customers.”

“Supply on Demand”’s pilot began in Qatar in January 2021, with vessels moving cargo to the North and East fields. The number of vessels included in the offering will increase in line with demand for the service and as customers’ operational needs require. All vessels included in the service offering meet clients’ marine assurance requirements.
