ABOUT US

Founded in 2012, Sovereign Global Solution Middle East (SGME) has been over the past decade the key operational entity of the Sovereign Global Group, acting as a program integrator and trusted service provider to governments for their maritime, land and air operations in the Middle East and Africa.

From 2019, in addition to its traditional services portfolio, SGME embarked on the development and chartering of its own fleet of uncrewed vessels (USV) for the offshore industry. SGME created RCDock Engineering BV in The Netherlands (100% owned subsidiary) to develop the MARIP family of USVs and produce a first vessel, the MARIP-12.

In 2022, Strategic Development Fund (SDF), an Abu Dhabi-based investment entity and part of EDGE Group, became a key partner with a 25% equity investment in SGME. This partnership aims to develop the MARIP family of USVs for operational deployment in offshore operations across the Middle East and globally.

SGME conducts the development, construction and operations of the MARIP fleet from the UAE. We also manage crewed vessel operations from the UAE as well as all the key traditional services of the Sovereign Global Group.
