Cargostore Worldwide, a leading supplier of DNV 2.7-1 certified offshore containers (CCUs) today announced their expansion into Mexico, opening a depot in Ciudad del Carmen. The move cements their position as a growing supplier of DNV offshore containers to the Gulf of Mexico region.
The expansion is in partnership with local ship management and offshore service provider ‘Harren & Partner’ who have been based in Ciudad del Carmen since 2014. Their extensive knowledge of the local market coupled with Cargostore’s specialised fleet of containers and experience in establishing key partnerships, will allow them to provide a structured service to offshore oil projects in the region.
The depot is now fully operational with the first batch of DNV 2.7-1 Reefer containers having recently arrived and leased for a project in the Gulf. More containers are being mobilized to the region and a full suite of containers will be available to lease over the coming weeks and months.
Cargostore’s development into Mexico comes rapidly after their move into Taiwan in Q2 2020, which is a testament to their swift and expansive growth plans and strong position in the industry, despite COVID-19.
