Securing Offshore Energy Assets

Introduction

Apexindo has secured another offshore drilling contract with Pertamina, signalling growth in Southeast Asia’s energy sector. But with expansion comes increased operational risk across the maritime security spectrum.

Industry context

Remote offshore platforms operate in high-threat zones vulnerable to piracy, militant sabotage, and regional geopolitical friction. Rising incidents in Southeast Asia underscore the need for stronger countermeasures. ISPS compliance, dynamic routing intelligence, and onboard vigilance are critical for safety, ensuring operational continuity and crew welfare.

Practical measures

  • Deploy onboard security teams trained in offshore protection protocols.
  • Integrate risk assessments with live regional intelligence streams.
  • Conduct regular emergency response drills with all rig personnel.
  • Reinforce SOPs to adapt quickly to emerging threats or route changes.
  • Utilise surveillance technology to monitor perimeters 24/7.
