South Africa is the strategic African hub for maritime operations in the trade corridor from Asia to the East Coast of South America, and for the connector routes along the East and West coasts of Africa. With its proximity to offshore drilling and exploration sites around Africa and its first-world technology, skills and infrastructure, South Africa is a compelling choice for ship and rig maintenance and repair for the oil & gas industry as well as for the world’s shipping operations.

South Africa produces world-class boats and ships of up to 140m for civilian and military use. The ship and boatbuilding sector is backed by a rich supply chain of manufacturers, technicians, fabricators installers and system integrators.

Under Operation Phakisa – Oceans Economy, a priority programme, the South African Government aims to grow the Ocean Economy’s contribution to the country’s GDP by 350%, including port expansion and upgrades.

For Africa Mega projects, maritime infrastructure, oil & gas operations, shipping ports operations, logistics or maritime engineering, South Africa should be part of your strategic planning.
