Chevron taps ABL for platform installation, rig move services in Gulf of Thailand

ABL has been awarded a work order by Chevron Thailand Exploration and Production, Ltd., Chevron Offshore (Thailand) Ltd., and Chevron Pattani Ltd. to provide marine warranty survey (MWS) and third-party support services for upcoming offshore operations in the Gulf of Thailand.

The contract covers MWS services for wellhead platform installations, including document reviews, suitability surveys, loadout and towage approvals, and lifted installation assessments. ABL’s Thailand operations will lead project execution with support from its regional offices in Malaysia and Singapore.

“With the competency of our ABL team across the APAC region and our local expertise in Thailand, we are uniquely positioned to provide a diverse scope of work,” said Mingkwan Surasorn, ABL’s Country Manager in Thailand.

Simon Healy, Regional Managing Director for Asia Pacific, added that ABL’s integrated approach—combining marine warranty, DP assurance, and diving audits—“enables safer, smarter operations” across Chevron’s Gulf of Thailand activities.
