DESE Crew Management played a pivotal role in the successful delivery of the drillship "Fatih" to Turkey, marking a significant milestone for the nation's offshore energy sector. Managed by Dubai-based Noah Marine, the ship was brought to Turkey at the end of 2017, with the support of the Turkish Ministry of Energy and the Turkish Petroleum Corporation by crew of DESE.
In late 2017, DESE Crew Management, continuously striving to introduce Turkish seafarers to the offshore industry, arranged for a team of Turkish sailors to travel to Norway to bring the vessel back to Turkey. This initiative came after receiving approval from the operating company, Noah Marine, and marked the first time that Turkish seafarers engaged with a drilling vessel of this scale. The effort was met with high praise from the Turkish government, local shipowners, and the maritime community.
Today, DESE Crew Management is focused on expanding opportunities for Turkish seafarers in drilling & offshore industry.
