Since 2004 ISS Palumbo has developed a unique experience in handling pipes and in port logistics operations concerning the laying of offshore pipes. ISS Palumbo guarantees reliability and experience; for each project located around the world, it is responsible for studying transport feasibility and implementation.
“It is our job to identify and suggest ports located near the project, to study transport in the maritime logistics base and to take care of the handling and storage of pipes and of all the equipment required by the Customer to implement its plan.”
The service offered for each assignment also includes all typical activities of the shipping agency for the Client’s fleets.
