Seven Seas Group

What Seven Seas Group does

Seven Seas Group is a UAE-headquartered diversified conglomerate established in 2003 in Sharjah by CEO Masood ul Rehman, operating through a holding structure (SSH, established 2011) and nine wholly-owned operating subsidiaries spanning construction, facilities management, operations and maintenance, manpower supply, marine/shipping, procurement, fuel supply, IT/cybersecurity, and events management. The group serves government and semi-government entities as well as international prime contractors across the UAE and broader GCC, with documented project involvement on Dubai Metro Expolink 2020, Etihad Rail phases 2B/C/D, Abu Dhabi Midfield Terminal, Noor Energy / DEWA III, and Al Dhafra PV2 solar projects — subcontracting to international EPC firms including ACCIONA, CRCC, CCECC, CMEC, Daewoo, Hyundai, and Salini Impregilo. Revenue is generated through a mix of project-based construction contracts, long-term managed-services agreements (FM and O&M), and transaction-based streams (fuel, procurement, shipping agency), with pricing quoted per project. The group operates a deployed workforce of over 7,000 personnel across offices in Sharjah, Abu Dhabi, Hamriya Free Zone, and Musaffah; in 2023 it expanded into Saudi Arabia via SSIC (KSA) with 135 licensed activities, followed by SSG7 Properties (Dubai real estate platform) in 2024 and G7 (workforce platform) in 2025.

The group's core technology and operational backbone consists of integrated service delivery across construction, FM, O&M, HR solutions, procurement, and diesel/bio-diesel supply — the last with a GPS-tracked tanker fleet (1,000–12,000 IG capacity) and calibrated metering. Specialized offerings include NDT services, engineering and CAD design (architectural, civil, electrical, mechanical, plumbing, structural with 3D/4D modeling integrated into EPFCM workflows), cyber risk management, and aviation ground services delivered in partnership with ARL UK. The group is ISO 9001/14001/45001 certified and claims 20+ million safe working hours and 10+ million LTI-free hours, which function as safety credentials on safety-sensitive infrastructure tenders. Energy services are oriented around an "energy transition" positioning established in 2019, with coverage of oil and gas upstream/midstream/downstream, solar EPC support, and power plant O&M.

The business model is enterprise field-sales driven: direct contracting with UAE government entities and prime contractors, complemented by subcontracting arrangements on mega-projects and joint-venture pursuit. Customer origin spans 20+ countries including China, Saudi Arabia, India, Japan, South Korea, Egypt, Australia, the UK, Germany, France, Italy, Spain, Turkey, and Pakistan — reflecting the international composition of the prime-contractor client base. Marketing is predominantly relationship-based (referrals, JV outreach, tender submissions, industry events), supplemented by a corporate website and LinkedIn/Facebook/Twitter/Instagram presence. No public pricing tiers are disclosed.
