Soror Basalom, president of Bahri Integrated Logistics, said the investment forms part of the company’s plans to expand its offshore capabilities, modernize Saudi Arabia’s logistics infrastructure and deploy vessels offering improved safety, efficiency and operational performance.
Both vessels will be constructed at Grandweld Shipyard’s facility in Dubai Maritime City, with delivery scheduled for August 2026.
The order supports Bahri’s wider fleet modernization and diversification strategy, which includes enhancing technical capabilities and adopting more energy-efficient and environmentally responsible vessel designs.
Through continued investment in fleet capacity, infrastructure and technology, Bahri Logistics aims to provide more sustainable marine logistics services while supporting Saudi Arabia’s economic diversification plans, Vision 2030 and the Saudi Green Initiative.
