What Newport Marine Services does

PT Newport Marine Services Tbk (NMS) is an Indonesian shipowner and ship management company established in 2008 and headquartered in Jakarta. The company provides offshore vessel charter services primarily to oil and gas exploration and production companies operating in Southeast Asia, with services spanning cargo transportation, rig moves, seismic survey support, offshore construction assistance, and salvage operations. NMS is publicly listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (ticker: NMS) and adopted the "Tbk" suffix to its legal name in 2023 to formalize its listed status; controlling shareholders are identified as Sujaya Soekarno Putra, Surya Soekarno Putra, and Nyonya Dharmawati Djuhana.

NMS operates a hybrid asset model combining a directly owned fleet with a third-party charter aggregation network. The owned fleet comprises Anchor Handling Tug Supply (AHTS) vessels (NMS Bravery, NMS Brilliance, NMS Sapphire), Crew/Utility Vessels (NMS Accomplish, Achieve, Accelerate, Adventurer, Adventurer 1), and a converted Platform Supply Vessel used as a Seismic Gun Boat. The company also brokers third-party vessels including tugboats, AHT, PSV, oil barges, and crew ships, allowing it to provide comprehensive coverage without full asset ownership. Notable technical capabilities include vessel conversions (PSV to Seismic Gun Boat; AHTS to Node Handling & Gun Boat) and a 2017 world-record seismic operation supporting BGP with 7 vessels. The company holds ISO 9001:2015, ISO 14001:2015, and OHSAS 18001:2007 certifications issued by Bureau Veritas.

The customer base is concentrated in the international oil and gas sector and includes Pertamina, BP, Petronas, CNPC, CNOOC, TotalEnergies, ENI, Santos, Murphy Oil, and CPOC, alongside rig operators (Seadrill, Transocean), survey firms (Fugro), and salvage specialists (Tsavliris, T&TSalvage). NMS is sales-led, pursuing direct B2B charter contracts with energy companies. The revenue model is charter-based, with vessels deployed for project-based and recurring offshore campaigns; pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. The company employs 51–100 staff and is led by President Director Sujaya Putra (Managing Director since 2008) and President Commissioner Dharmawati Djuhana (since 2008), with an Independent Commissioner and Audit Committee added in 2024 as part of post-IPO governance buildout.
