Gulf Marine Services (GMS) was founded in Abu Dhabi, UAE, in 1977 and has become the largest provider of self-propelled, self-elevating accommodation jackup barges in the world. GMS is listed on the London Stock Exchange.

GMS’ assets provide the stable platform for delivery of a wide range of services throughout the total lifecycle of offshore oil, gas and renewable energy activities, and are capable of operations in the Middle East, South East Asia, West Africa and Europe.

The company constructs and maintains its vessels at its yard in Abu Dhabi and has an extensive new build and replacement programme, including the construction of the harsh weather environment Gusto NG2500X DPII ESVs. As a result, GMS has the youngest and most sophisticated fleet in the industry, which it operates from its offices in Abu Dhabi, Saudi Arabia and the United Kingdom.

GMS also operates two anchor handling tug supply vessels and a floating accommodation barge.
