In less than two decades the Company has substantially accelerated its efforts to grow by increasing its assets from owning one barge in 1992 to owning thirteen construction vessels in 2012.The pace of geographical expansion grew simultaneously, thus allowing VM to undertake projects in the wider region (East and West coast of India, east coast of Africa, Yemen, Red Sea, Black Sea and the Mediteranean).Most importantly, despite fierce competition VM has emerged as a distinguished EPC offshore contractor in the Arabian Gulf. In the last five years VM has successfully executed EPC projects in excess of $1 billion for high-profile clients such as Saudi ARAMCO and ONGC in India.One of the key factors Valentine's success story is rooted in company's dedication in the implementation of health, safety and environmental (HSE) policies.
