CENMC, G.P.
CENMC is a part of the Saipem S.p.A. group. Saipem began operations in the 1950s as an onshore pipelay, plant construction, and drilling company. At that time, it was a division of the ENI Group. In 1969, it broke from the group and became an autonomous entity. From 1988 to 2001, Saipem invested more than 1.2 billion euros to enhance its fleet of offshore construction barges and offshore drilling units. This move catapulted the company to the industry’s forefront of technological innovation and operational efficiency. Now Saipem enjoys a superior competitive position in services focusing in remote areas, deep-water environments and gas-related projects.
Over the years, Saipem has demonstrated its staunch dedication to safety. The company has a state-of-the-art Health & Safety Executive Management System, and its Quality Management System has been granted special recognition.
