Silver lining: Bukom fire to benefit contractors

Order flows potentially await contractors that provide civil engineering, construction, equipment rental and/or structural steel works services.

DMG Research said some beneficiaries include Hai Leck Holdings, Hiap Seng Engineering, Mun Siong Engineering, OKP Holdings, PEC, Rotary Engineering, Tat Hong Holdings, Tiong Woon Corporation Holding, TTJ Holdings and Yongnam Holdings.

However, noted DMG Research, those doing maintenance works for Shell will be affected in the near term with the shutdown, which is said to be likely to last at least a month. Parties providing maintenance service include Hai Leck Holdings, Hiap Seng Engineering, Mun Siong Engineering, PEC, and Rotary Engineering.

The fire was described as “one of the worst petrochem disasters in Singapore in almost 20 years.” DMG Research said, “The party found responsible may face more dire consequences like losing its qualified resident contractor status with Shell.”

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
