NRC announces new Tier 2 oil spill response base servicing Mexico's Bay of Campeche

12/22/2016

NRC announces the establishment of its strategic Tier 2 oil spill response base in the Bay of Campeche region of Mexico. Driven by new shallow and deepwater drilling developments in Mexico, NRC’s robust Tier 2 base will support NRC E&P clients now operating in Mexico’s Bay of Campeche. NRC’s base is located in Paraíso, near the Port of Dos Bocas in the coastal state of Tabasco, Mexico.

Partnering with Marinsa Specialized Vessels, NRC has established its Tier 2 base as a shared services operation, providing an extensive array of equipment, stockpiled dispersant, dedicated expert personnel, incident management, consultancy and training, and our range of call-off services. Marinsa provides a range of support vessels including fast supply vessels, supply boats, utility boats, crew boats, and pilot boats.

In addition to localized, in-country services, our clients have access to an extensive array of additional NRC resources in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico, including over 1,000 fully trained personnel, international Tier 3 response coverage, including shoreline, offshore, and HVLP kits packaged on aircraft-ready pallets, and dedicated aircraft and additional dispersant stockpile as part of our Global Response Service (GRS) capabilities.
