Message from the Chairman
Beyond Horizon 2012, BOURBON 2015 Leadership Strategy will consist into a new building program of innovative and cost effective vessels for the customers. This investment of 2 billion US$ between 2011 and 2015 aims at supplying the vessels needed by the deepwater market growth as well as, following the success of our Bourbon liberty Series, further substitute the old and obsolete vessels that constitute the bulk of todays shallow water fleet.
In 2015, BOURBON will therefore operate a fleet of 600 vessels and would have in between recruited an additional 5,000 people to support the fleet and company growth.
To deliver this new plan, the women and men that make BOURBON every day, for serving demanding customers worldwide, are fully engaged, both collectively as well as personally, to stand by the highest safety and operations standards and to use total quality management systems as an effective way towards excellence.
Our reward will be our customers’ satisfaction, our personnel’s satisfaction as well as our shareholders’ satisfaction.
Thank you for your trust.
Jacques de Chateauvieux
BOURBON Chief Executive Officer
