Tiger Rentank operates as a specialized joint venture within the Brazilian maritime and energy sectors, formed through the strategic partnership of the American entity Tiger Offshore and the Brazilian industrial conglomerate Grupo Rentank. Established to address the complex logistical needs of the South American oil and gas market, the company functions as a critical link in the supply chain connecting onshore support bases with offshore platforms, drilling rigs, and support vessels.
Since commencing operations in 2008, the organization has focused on the rental and management of cargo carrying units (CCUs) designed to withstand the harsh conditions of marine environments. Its inventory encompasses a wide array of certified equipment, including chemical tanks, offshore baskets, containers, cuttings boxes, and skids. These units are engineered to meet rigorous international safety standards, such as DNV 2.7-1 certifications, ensuring the secure transport of hazardous materials, tools, bulk fluids, and essential supplies across the ocean. The equipment is often characterized by robust construction, such as galvanized steel, to resist corrosion from saltwater exposure during transit on supply vessels.
Beyond simple equipment leasing, Tiger Rentank provides integrated service solutions intended to maintain the integrity and safety of offshore cargo operations. The company performs specialized maintenance tasks, including automated tank cleaning, decontamination, and leak testing, alongside load testing and structural inspections. These services are essential for preventing environmental contamination and ensuring that all transport hardware remains compliant with strict maritime safety regulations before being lifted onto vessels.
Headquartered in the heart of Brazil’s energy hub, the company maintains strategic operational bases in key locations such as Macaé and Rio das Ostras in the state of Rio de Janeiro, as well as facilities in Bahia. This geographic distribution allows for the rapid deployment of assets to support exploration and production activities along the Brazilian coast, effectively reducing downtime for offshore operators. By combining international equipment standards with established local infrastructure, Tiger Rentank facilitates the continuous flow of resources required for offshore drilling, production, and subsea construction projects. The organization serves a broad spectrum of industry participants, supporting the logistical backbone necessary for the extraction and transport of marine resources in the region.
