Over the years SAS has gained extensive experience in: Pipe Lay Systems, Winch Systems and Heavy Lift and Handling Systems. After sales and service has always been considered to be the key responsibility after delivery of the equipment to ensure continued operation. SAS service team is on call 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, anywhere in the world. There is no getting around it. After 1896 the world
would never be the same again. From that time onwards, slowly but surely, the maritime and offshore business would be shaken up. The start of a new era. The era of SAS Offshore. A company whose genesis is seen more frequently in world class businesses. A small company that started as a machine manufacturer, but which - quite soon - could not disguise its love for the maritime business. A small company that developed into a genuine business. A business that has become an international player. On the high seas. A business that has gained renown. An international business that managed to turn the twentieth century into a new Golden Age by being first in many respects. Our power
Is it the genes of old Mr Sas? Undoubtedly. Is it Dutch 'thoroughness'? That will also play a part, no doubt. Is it the timber from which the SAS men and woman were hewn? Bingo. It is no coincidence that we are talking about 'Reliable deck equipment'' and 'Reliable lifting equipment'. Let's be frank about it; you can only achieve that through the right people. People with the right experience, the right attitude, operating with precision. And that is the strength of SAS. That is the power that was in place by the end of the nineteenth century. That is the ability to be first time and time again. The first portable, containerized tensioners. The first pipe handling and tensioning equipment for very deep waters. Big, bigger, biggest. Good is never good enough. SAS is entitled to make such statements. It's no mysterious X-factor. SAS has something far better. SAS boasts a unique and powerful combination. Offshore, since 1896. Our customers
Do you know what SAS' customers actually buy? Our customers buy products. Complete systems that keep functioning in the middle of nowhere, even under the most adverse conceivable conditions. Products that simply work. Even when exposed to the most extreme forms of violence from Mother Nature. Our men and women – hewn from that special SAS timber - do not think that standards should be simply set high. They should always be set higher. For then you will seldom suffer setbacks. Then you always build in extra safeguards. Now that is our famous 'thoroughness'. Reliability first and foremost. So that our clients can perform better. And perform longer. Achieve impressive results. We have been raising the offshore bar since 1896. Our people
Many companies like to make statements such as '24/7'. We would like to turn that into: ’86.400/10.080’. As in all the seconds in a day. We are intensely involved in our products, our systems and our customers, every minute of the week. Every second even. Our people just go for it. Permanently improving our products. Delivering tailor-made work, day and night. With a commitment that is consistently focused on 'on-time delivery' and reliable after sales service. A commitment you should expect from an organisation of this calibre. That's why we go far. Very far. In solution-focused thinking. In problem-solving operations. Which is only feasible when you have the right people under your roof. They are the ones who make us powerful. In-house technologists, who never fail to exceed themselves. Including cool cats, who have the freedom to amaze time and time again. You might call that the SAS mentality. We call it an offshore gaze since 1896. In 2015 SAS became part of Royal IHC.
