Indonesian offshore vessel operator PT Pelayaran Nasional Ekalya Purnamasari, known as ELPI, has won a three-year charter valued at $12.04m with the UAE’s Atlantic Maritime Group, Splash 247 reported. The agreement brings together two of the company’s crewboats for offshore support assignments in the Middle East, where ELPI has been pursuing further vessel contracts.
The vessels covered by the charter are Kazo Agility 2 and Kazo Agility 3. Their work will involve supporting offshore hook-up operations and providing transportation services in Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar and Bahrain. The reported contract value covers the two-vessel agreement over its three-year term.
Both crewboats were constructed by Indonesia’s PT Orela Shipyard and are approximately 40.3 metres long. Kazo Agility 2 entered the fleet following delivery in 2024, while its sister vessel was delivered in 2025. Splash 247 described the pair as offshore crew and supply vessels, with the latest agreement setting out their support role across the four Gulf markets.
The charter follows an earlier update on the vessels’ regional employment. In September, ELPI said both were working for Saudi Aramco as it sought additional offshore vessel business in the Middle East. The new agreement also comes after fleet expansion moves by the Indonesian operator, including its acquisition of the multipurpose support vessel Bourbon Evolution 805 earlier this year.
Separately, ELPI has secured a long-term marine services agreement for a planned floating LNG development in Bintuni Bay, West Papua. According to Splash 247, that contract is worth Rp2.39trn ($131.69m) and runs for 18 years. It covers six vessels: one offshore supply vessel, three multipurpose tugs, one crewboat and one pilot boat. The West Papua agreement therefore involves a broader mix of vessel types and a longer contract period than the latest Middle East charter.
