Sodexo, through its Offshore & Marine business, will also provide housekeeping and laundry services on the custom-designed Bibby Wavemaster 1, a vessel which serves the offshore renewables and wind farm market.
Accommodation on board the vessel includes 60 en-suite berths capable of accommodating up to 90 persons on board in addition to leisure facilities and office facilities.
The design of the ship means it is able to remain at sea for periods of up to one month at a time.
The contract will be managed from Sodexo’s Offshore & Marine centre of excellence in Capelle aan den Ijssel, part of the port of Rotterdam.
Erik Delmee, operations director marine with Sodexo, said: “We are proud that Bibby Marine has chosen Sodexo as its partner for the provision of services which will have a significant impact on the quality of life of those on board the new Bibby Wavemaster 1.
“We have an extensive experience of providing services on board, from managing individual project related vessels to entire fleets worldwide.
“This has been an exciting project for Bibby Marine and we have been pleased to have worked with the team throughout the mobilisation and the vessel’s maiden voyage to now supporting the on board team on its first long term project.”
