Based in the strategic maritime hub of Chattogram (Chittagong), Ultra Marine operates as a specialized service provider within the Bangladeshi shipping and offshore sectors. The company functions primarily as a ship supplier and marine contractor, delivering a range of logistical and technical support solutions to vessels calling at the country's major seaports. By integrating supply chain management with on-the-ground operational support, the firm facilitates the smooth turnaround of merchant fleets, oil tankers, and offshore units navigating the Bay of Bengal.
The core of Ultra Marine’s operations revolves around ship chandling, ensuring that vessels are stocked with necessary provisions and stores during their stay in port or at outer anchorage. The company’s procurement teams organize the delivery of fresh, frozen, and dry food provisions to sustain ship crews for extended voyages. Beyond catering, the enterprise manages the supply of technical stores essential for vessel seaworthiness. This inventory includes deck and engine equipment, cabin stores, electrical components, and safety gear. The firm also coordinates the delivery of marine lubricants and navigational charts, addressing the routine maintenance and operational requirements of diverse vessel classes.
In addition to material supply, Ultra Marine provides active technical services and labor support. The company deploys maintenance crews to perform surface preparation tasks, such as chipping and painting, which are critical for controlling corrosion on steel hulls and superstructures. Their technical capabilities extend to underwater inspections and hull cleaning, allowing shipowners to assess and maintain vessel integrity without dry-docking. The organization also handles waste management logistics, including the collection and disposal of sludge and garbage, ensuring arriving ships remain compliant with local environmental and port authority regulations.
The company further supports maritime trade through shipping agency services. Acting as a representative for vessel owners and operators, Ultra Marine coordinates port entry formalities, documentation, and logistical clearances. This agency role encompasses protective agency services and the provision of watchmen to ensure security and operational oversight while ships are at berth. Through these multifaceted activities, Ultra Marine serves as a logistical bridge between shore-based resources and the maritime transport industry in Bangladesh.
