At Bourbon Mobility, we call Surfers the speedboats used to transport personnel and light parcels, essential for the functioning of an offshore site.

Our Surfer fleet is composed of light, fast cruisers and that are highly maneuverable. Surfers provide transportation of professionals to offshore oil and gas sites and can serve different platforms within the same field.

Historically present in West Africa, the Surfer fleet has grown steadily in deep tropics of South East Asia, Brazil, and the Persian Gulf.
