We are a global maritime operator

We are a shipowner, we charter vessels

Providing the right vessel to meet our customers’ needs has been our business model since the Jifmar Group was founded in 2005. With a fleet of more than 70 vessels spread across the globe and our experienced teams, we are able to respond to our customers’ needs with professionalism and speed.

The MPV:

our versatile swiss knife

The Multi-Purpose Vessel is characterised by  a very shallow draft, a robust hull and compact size, with remarkable manoeuvring ability. It is equipped with powerful tools such as cranes and winches. These vessels are used for various tasks such as towing, dredging, cable laying, offshore construction, ROV* or diving platforms, logistics and equipment, as well as support operations in ports and coastal areas. Because of their versatility and ability to work in a wide range of conditions, Multi-Purpose Vessels are widely used in the maritime industry for all kinds of projects.

Its noticeable strengths:

  • Shallow water draft
  • Reliable robustness
  • Large open and tough deck
  • Adaptability and flexibility
  • Large capacity cranes
  • Multiple winches
  • Manoeuvrable
  • Shallow water draft
  • Dynamic positioning from joystick to DP1 and DP2
  • Boat landing for PAX transfers

Turnkey solutions

Construction, installation and commissioning of a 2km long pipe at Port Gordon in Scotland is an excellent illustration of Jifmar’s expertise in the complete management of a maritime project. Although the work lasted 2 months from mid-May to mid-July 2023, it was in fact a long-term project, since it was entirely designed and carried out by Jifmar’s teams from the specifications stage right through to commissioning. One of Jifmar’s strengths is the variety of profiles and skills of its teams, which enables it to carry out tailor-made projects by taking charge of every stage of the process.

Long-term operations and maintenance

The Sete berth-island contract is one of the Group’s longest-standing contracts. It covers the unloading of refined products to the BP-GDH oil depot, maintenance operations and on-call operations. Previously, these unloading operations were carried out via a CBM; since 2020, JIFMAR has been operating from a jetty, adapting, and transforming its maritime expertise to land-based operations.. More than 100 unloading operations have already been carried out there.
