V.Group said Sept. 9 it has signed a contract with ADNOC Logistics & Services (ADNOC L&S) to provide crew management services for 93 offshore support vessels.

To enable further expansion in the region and to support the contract, V.Group opened a new Abu Dhabi office, which began operations in early August, the company said in a news release.

Following a stabilization period, scheduled to last until year-end 2019, the V.Group office plans to begin regular operations by providing crew management services to ADNOC L&S. Afterward, the company said it plans to expand its services in the region.
