Crosby Tugs Invests in SEA.O.G Offshore to Create a Partnership Focused on Building the “Blue Economy.”

SEA.O.G Offshore, an integrated services provider to the offshore energy industry, has announced a merger with Crosby Tugs.

 The partnership will focus on delivering installation support and operations and maintenance services for the US offshore wind industry.

 “The offshore wind industry must ‘ADAPT and Evolve’ as we like to say,” James Clouse, CEO of SEA.O.G. Offshore. “That’s where we come in. We work to address the regulatory and operational challenges facing developers in this quickly evolving industry.”

The partnership allows SEA.O.G to combine its services with Crosby’s assets and experience to deliver low-cost and innovative solutions to the industry.

 “The Crosby family of companies always finds a way of getting things done, and we immediately recognized that SEA.O.G Offshore had the same kind of dedication to solving problems,” says Director of Special Projects Aaron Guidry. “We are thrilled to invest in an innovative company that is working tirelessly to address the needs of the offshore wind industry and, in doing so, foster a better, more sustainable blue economy.”

 Crosby Tugs is one of the world’s most experienced marine transportation providers. The Louisiana-based company delivers wide-ranging offshore and inland marine towing, dredging, and rock placement services along the Gulf Coast region and beyond.  From a single tugboat launched in the 1970s, Crosby Tugs has grown to become a leader in multi-functional operations in both the Gulf of Mexico and internationally.

 “We are looking forward to continuing to support the ever-changing energy market, and with the combined synergies, we are going to be in a better position to service our clients. Our team is ready to drive the future forward.” Kurt Crosby, CEO of Crosby Tugs.

SEA.O.G Offshore is an active participant in the US supply chain for renewables.  Supporting marine operations for over 5gw of the largest onshore turbines, they are a market leader in offshore tug and barge operations in renewables. The company also provides marine transport, subsea, logistics and compliance solutions. The new combined fleet has 130 inland and offshore towboats and a fleet of over 400 barges, in addition to dozens of industry professionals across several business units.

Together, Crosby and SEA.O.G Offshore will bring the ADAPT feeder barge concept to market. ADAPT is a stable, semi-autonomous delivery and installation platform for Wind Turbine Components, Foundations, Scour Protection, and Cable lay.

 “We are all about connecting the dots,” says Clark Buffam, COO of SEA.O.G Offshore “Over the years, we’ve listened to the offshore energy industry and figured out where and how to add value. We are passionate about promoting local content, reducing costs, and delivering innovation through collaboration for the many challenges the US faces on its path to sustainability.”
