Netherlands-based Roll Group has announced a joint venture with Saudi Arabia based FTE Heavylift to provide heavy lift transportation and marine works for the Saudi Arabia market. The new company will be called Roll FTE and will be based in Dammam with operational yards in Jubail, Dammam, Jeddah and Rabigh.
The joint venture plans on investing in marine assets which will be registered and based in Saudi to accommodate the growing number of projects in the country requiring a combined marine and land transportation solution.
Nimalan Logeswaran, Regional Sales Director, Roll Group MEA, said: “By consolidating our equipment and expertise, we can offer our clients tremendous value with optimised solutions for their heavy lift requirements. Roll FTE will own both marine and land based assets in the country thereby providing a one stop shop for our clients needs in KSA.”
Roll Group was started in 2006 in Netherlands, and it has since developed into one of the key providers of heavy haulage solutions worldwide for both land and sea, across the world, including the Middle East. FTE Heavylift division was started in 2013 and since has grown to become the leading service provider for heavy lift transport and installation in Saudi Arabia.
