Marine maintenance and asset management forerunner Entraco Venture Corporation and its group of companies (Entraco) are determined to provide top-quality services to Asia's offshore companies as demand for marine and oil and gas subcontracting works heightens.

As an international and quality marine service provider, Entraco offers hot dip zinc galvanising, tank cleaning and coating services, structural steel fabrication and paints supplies to marine and oil and gas companies in the region. The group's shipyard in Singapore uses in-house technology, enabling it to undertake various onshore and offshore turnkey projects. It also provides warehousing facilities to manage clients' heavy equipment and provides dormitory facilities to support clients' needs.

Branching out into rig building and asset management, Entraco evolved into a global one-stop solutions provider as its clients expanded overseas. Aside from the domestic market in Singapore, Entraco's business offerings extend to Australia, Europe, Latin America, the Middle East and Southeast Asia.

Constant interactions with shipowners and customers such as Sembcorp Marine, ABB, BW Offshore, MODEC, SBM Offshore, PetroVietnam and Keppel Offshore & Marine propelled Entraco for growth, developing the group's reputation for providing reliable services.

Dedicated to using technological advancements to deliver safe, cost-effective and environment-friendly products, Entraco collaborates with equipment manufacturers to create groundbreaking intelligent machines. Its longtime partnership with global crane manufacturer Palfinger generated a series of innovative and automated equipment, including an automated hull hydro-blasting and painting machine that will significantly bring down labour costs and improve productivity. The newly launched equipment reduces a 60-man operation to a 30-man activity.
