Aberdeen-based offshore support vessel operator Sentinel Marine has rebranded as Cyan Sentinel, marking its first major step since Singapore’s Cyan Renewables acquired a controlling stake earlier this year year. The move reflects the backing of its new majority owner, but the company stressed it remains locally managed, with its head office, leadership team and day-to-day operations staying in Aberdeen. Cyan Sentinel continues to run one of the youngest emergency response and rescue vessel (ERRV) fleets in the UK, supporting oil and gas, offshore wind, fisheries and marine protection work, the company noted. Chief executive Rory Deans said the new identity better represents the company’s evolution while keeping its Scottish roots intact. “This rebrand reflects our evolution as a company — one that now has the backing of a global partner with shared values and complementary expertise,” Deans said. “While our name has changed, our DNA has not. We remain a Scottish business with our people, operations and decision-making firmly rooted in Aberdeen.” He said Cyan Renewables’ investment will support growth across traditional energy and the fast-expanding offshore wind market, while strengthening marine protection capabilities. Cyan Sentinel will continue offering its existing marine services but said it plans to explore further opportunities in renewables through its partnership with Cyan Renewables. “We are proud to see Sentinel evolve into Cyan Sentinel — a name that symbolises the strong partnership between our organisations,” Deans added. “Together, we combine global reach with local expertise, strengthening our shared commitment to safety, sustainability and supporting the UK’s offshore energy transition.” The rebrand follows a period of expansion. Earlier this year, the company signed with China’s Jiangmen Hangtong Shipbuilding for one firm 65-metre energy support vessel, plus options for three more. The newbuild, due in the second quarter of 2027, will take the fleet to 15 vessels. googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display('div-gpt-ad-1_95_0_1_2'); }); TagsSingapore United Kingdom
