VISION
To be recognized as the most reliable marine service provider for quality robust hull cleaning services and inspections in the Middle East and Africa.
KEY COMPETITION
Inspection and cleaning via ROVs is an emerging technology in the maritime industry, starting since 2012. Few companies have started around the world to compete in this race, some names standing out more than the others. GAC, with a well known existence as a maritime agent and service provider around the world, currentlyhas established a strong presence for cleaning using ROVs in the international market. Other names have emerged with products of excellent quality as well. Looking at the local market, the existing methods comprise of using divers and manually hand-held tools which are old and usually unsatisfactory for international clients. ROVs for cleaning and inspection of ship hulls in Egypt have been in high demand lately and a lack of service providers that can produce equal quality has become apparent.
LICENSING
In the process of obtaining licenses to work in Egypt for underwater inspection and cleaning operations to ships on anchorage from Bureau Veritas Egypt.
STRATEGY & STRENGTHS
CLIENTS / BROKERAGE NETWORK AlFennec will approach clients through all means available both local and international. To preserve our client’s best interests, we will operate directly with the owner or through their respective brokers. We already have several direct connections in the region with local and foreign clients, and many more with shipping brokers and agents.
GEOGRAPHICAL ADVANTAGE AlFennec is a pioneer in underwater inspections and cleaning using ROVs and we are planning to make use of the geographical advantage Egypt has. We will be able to utilize the waiting time in the Suez Canal to our client’s favour, by offering to perform our services while the ships awaits the convoy to pass the canal, waiting time for the ships becomes an investment instead of waste.
