Working in partnership with BBC Chartering, BBS has managed the transportation of several exceptionally large units, with the largest measuring 36 meters in length, 5 meters in width, and 5.39 meters in height, weighing 179 tons. Four additional units, each measuring 35 meters in length and weighing 150 tons, were also successfully transported.

BBS maintains an in-house transport engineering department, vessel chartering desk, and cargo survey capabilities, positioning itself as a leading logistics partner for large-scale industrial projects in the region. Their services are specifically tailored to meet the demands of EPCs, oilfield operators, and drilling companies.
