Keppel units award long-term offshore services contracts to Mencast

Extending up to end-2015.

The Board of Directors of Mencast Holdings Ltd announced that its wholly-owned subsidiary, Mencast Subsea Pte Ltd (Mencast Subsea) under its
Offshore and Engineering division, has won two separate contracts extending to 31 December 2015 (plus one year option to renew) from Keppel Singmarine Pte Ltd (Keppel Singmarine) and Keppel Shipyard Limited (“Keppel Shipyard”) for the provision of MRO services which include: (a) Underwater inspection and maintenance works, (b) Seabed survey inspection, (c) Hydrographic survey, and (d) Side Scan Sonar survey.

“These long term contract affirms our growing leadership in providing MRO services to the Offshore industry” said Executive Chairman Glenndle Sim “We are delighted to be awarded these long term contracts by Keppel Singmarine, a world leader in shipbuilding and offshore vessels, and Keppel Shipyard, a leader in the conversion of Floating Production Storage Offloading Units, Floating Storage Offloading vessels and Floating Storage and Regasification Units.”

These contracts follow the announcement on 17 June 2013 of a long term contract for similar services awarded by Keppel FELS to Mencast Subsea. Keppel FELS, Keppel Singmarine and Keppel Shipyard are subsidiaries of Keppel Offshore & Marine Ltd (Keppel O&M), a global leader in offshore rig design, construction and repair, ship repair and conversion, and specialised shipbuilding.

The new contracts are expected to contribute positively to, but have no material impact on, the earnings per share and net tangible assets per share of the Company and its subsidiaries for the current financial year ending 31 December 2013.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

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.
