Commissioning and maintenance manpower

Commissioning and maintenance teams of 50 or 100, on contract.

Petromarsh supplies complete commissioning and maintenance teams for plants, platforms and power projects in the GCC and Europe. We send a team of 50 or 100 people with its own supervisors and engineers, working under your permit system and your schedule. You get one contract, one point of contact and a team that has worked together before.
