    This is the initial public offering of the ordinary shares (our Shares) of PACC Offshore Services Holdings Ltd. (our Company). We are issuing 252,020,000 new Shares for subscription by investors at the Offering Price (as defined below). The Offering (as defined below) comprises: (i) an international offering to investors, including institutional and other investors in Singapore (the International Offering), including 25,200,000 Shares (the Reserved Shares) reserved for the directors, management, employees and business associates of our Company, our subsidiaries and our joint ventures, and Kuok (Singapore) Limited (KSL) and its subsidiaries (including Pacific Carriers Limited (PCL) and its subsidiaries) who have contributed to our success to be determined by us at our sole discretion, and (ii) an offering to the public in Singapore (the Public Offering). The International Offering and the Public Offering (together, the Offering) will consist of an aggregate of 252,020,000 Shares (the Offering Shares). The offering price (the Offering Price) for each Offering Share is S$1.15.

    At the same time as but separate from the Offering, each of Hwang Investment Management Berhad and Fortress Capital Asset Management (M) Sdn Bhd (collectively, the Cornerstone Investors) has entered into a cornerstone subscription agreement with our Company (collectively, the Cornerstone Subscription Agreements) to subscribe for an aggregate of 85,605,000 new Shares at the Offering Price (the Cornerstone Shares), conditional upon the Management and Underwriting Agreement and Placement Agreement (each as defined herein) having been entered into and not having been terminated pursuant to their terms on or prior to the Listing Date (as defined here).

    The Offering is underwritten by DBS Bank Ltd. (DBS Bank), Merrill Lynch (Singapore) Pte. Ltd. (Merrill Lynch) and Oversea-Chinese Banking Corporation Limited (OCBC Bank) (together, the Joint Issue Managers, Bookrunners and Underwriters) at the Offering Price.

    In connection with the Offering, PCL (the Over-allotment Option Provider) has granted Merrill Lynch, as stabilising manager (the Stabilising Manager), acting on behalf of the Joint Issue Managers, Bookrunners and Underwriters, an over-allotment option (the Over-allotment Option), exercisable in whole or in part on one or more occasions from the date of commencement of dealing in our Shares on the Singapore Exchange Securities Trading Limited (the SGX-ST) (the Listing Date) until the earlier of (i) the date falling 30 days from the Listing Date, or (ii) the date when the Stabilising Manager or its appointed agent has bought, on the SGX-ST, an aggregate of 46,125,000 Shares, representing approximately 18.3% of the total Offering Shares, to undertake stabilising actions, to purchase from PCL up to an aggregate of 46,125,000 Shares (the Additional Shares) (representing approximately 18.3% of the total Offering Shares) at the Offering Price, solely to cover the over-allotment of the Offering Shares, if any. The exercise of the Over-allotment Option will not increase the total number of issued Shares immediately after completion of the Offering.

    Prior to the Offering, there was no public market for our Shares. An application has been made to the SGX-ST for permission to list all our issued Shares, the Offering Shares, the Cornerstone Shares, the Additional Shares, the Shares which may be issued upon the exercise of options to be granted under the POSH Share Option Plan (the Option Shares) and the Shares which may be issued upon the release of awards to be granted under the POSH Performance Share Plan (the Performance Shares) on the Mainboard of the SGX-ST. Such permission will be granted when our Shares have been admitted to the Official List of the SGX-ST. Acceptance of applications for the Offering Shares will be conditional

    upon, among others, permission being granted by the SGX-ST to deal in and for quotation of all our issued Shares, the Offering Shares, the Cornerstone Shares, the Additional Shares, the Option Shares and the Performance Shares. Monies paid in respect of any application accepted will be returned to you, at your own risk, without interest or any share of revenue or other benefit arising therefrom if the Offering is not completed because the said permission is not granted or for any other reason, and you will not have any right or claim against us, the Over-allotment Option Provider or the Joint Issue Managers, Bookrunners and Underwriters. Our Company has received a letter of eligibility from the SGX-ST for the listing and quotation of all our issued Shares, the Offering Shares, the Cornerstone Shares, the Additional Shares, the Option Shares and the Performance Shares on the Mainboard of the SGX-ST. Our Companys eligibility to list and admission of our Shares to the Official List of the SGX-ST is not to be taken as an indication of the merits of the Offering, our Company, any of our subsidiaries, our Shares (including the Offering Shares, the Cornerstone Shares, the Additional Shares, the Option Shares and the Performance Shares), the POSH Share Option Plan or the POSH Performance Share Plan. The SGX-ST assumes no responsibility for the correctness of any statements or opinions made or reports contained in this Prospectus.

  • Our Competitive Strengths

    Largest Asia-based international operator with a diversified fleet of offshore supportvessels

    We are the largest Asia-based international operator of offshore support vessels and one of thetop five globally, based on Infields data on the number of vessels operated by us and the othermajor international providers of global support vessels. As of December 31, 2013 and as of theLatest Practicable Date, we operated a combined fleet of 112 and 110 vessels, respectively,including 45 and 47 vessels, respectively, owned by our joint ventures (of which, as of the LatestPracticable Date, one vessel is undergoing conversion into an accommodation vessel and twovessels are chartered by a joint venture as a charterer on long-term charters). This combined fleetcomprises AHTS, AHTs, ocean-towing tugs, PSVs, accommodation vessels, utility vessels andcrane and deck barges. As of the Latest Practicable Date, we have on order and scheduled fordelivery 15 vessels, comprising two deck cargo barges, two ASD harbour tugs, three DP2accommodation vessels, three DP2 AHTS, two DP3 SSAVs, and three vessels which our jointventures have on order. In addition, we have one vessel that is undergoing conversion into anaccommodation vessel. Please see Business Vessels to be Delivered for further details.

    Our large and diverse fleet, coupled with our ability to provide value-added services (such as theadded value in providing transportation services through our T&I Segment together withpositioning and set-up services through our OSV Segment), enables us to deliver comprehensivesolutions to our customers by leveraging on our multi-segment offshore capabilities to activelycross-sell our services and secure contracts that are otherwise difficult as a single service-provider, thereby setting us apart and positioning us favourably to compete for tenders. Ourinvolvement across a wide scope of the offshore oilfield services through our different businesssegments enables us to better understand and respond to our customers needs and allows us toanticipate future offshore oilfield service needs. Our diversified fleet and service offerings enableus to achieve financial performance and resilience during industry downturns. We have beenprofitable every financial year since our business expansion in 2007.

    We constantly monitor demand for offshore services, charter rates, vessel types and fleet sizethrough our involvement across the wide scope of offshore oilfield services through our differentbusiness segments. With this knowledge, we are able to optimise the portfolio mix of our fleet inorder to better service our customers and respond in a timely manner to industry trends. Forexample, as at the Latest Practicable Date, we have ordered two DP3 SSAVs to cater to theincreased demand for deepwater accommodation vessels. We believe this is a key competitiveadvantage that differentiates us from our competitors.

  • Well-positioned to capture market opportunities across all our business segments

    We believe that each of our business segments is well-positioned to capture market opportunities.

    Offshore Supply Vessels

    We are one of the leading Asia-based operators of AHTS and PSVs with a fleet of 14 AHTS and13 PSVs as at December 31, 2013 and 15 AHTS and 13 PSVs as at the Latest Practicable Date.According to Infield, we have the youngest deepwater AHTS and PSV fleet and the youngestmidwater AHTS and PSV fleet globally, with an average age of 2.3 and 2.2 years, as at December31, 2013, respectively. The age profile of our fleet is a key competitive advantage as modernvessels are often preferred due to better reliability and emphasis on higher environmental andsafety standards.

    Our modern deepwater AHTS are well-placed to benefit from the growing demand for deepwatervessels arising from increased deepwater oil and gas E&P activity across the world. Furthermore,all of our AHTS and PSVs are equipped with Dynamic Positioning or DP technology which isincreasingly a pre-requisite for most offshore projects.

    Transportation and Installation

    We are one of Asias leading operators providing deepwater towage services for varioushigh-value offshore assets, such as rigs and FPSOs, and offshore construction, transportation andsupport services in the shallow-water segment.

    According to Infield, we have one of the largest deepwater AHT fleets in the world ranked by fleetsize. We have built up a track record in completing many demanding and high-value ocean towageprojects, having successfully completed 53 floating system (including FPSOs) transportation andinstallation contracts since 1991 as of the Latest Practicable Date. According to Infield, we havebeen involved in at least seven of the 35 floating unit installations that have taken place inAsia-Pacific between 2010 and 2013, including five of the 15 largest in terms of topside weight.In the first half of 2013, we were awarded the transportation and installation contract for IchthysCentral Processing Facility (CP Facility) as well as the Ichthys FPSO. Once the Ichthys CPFacility is completed, the structure is expected to be the worlds largest CP Facility installed todate.

    Offshore Accommodation

    As at the Latest Practicable Date, we have ordered two 750-person DP3 SSAVs. These vesselsare scheduled to be delivered by the end of 2014. As at the Latest Practicable Date, we are in thefinal stages of procuring a charter contract for the commercial deployment of one of the vesselswhen it is delivered. The execution of the charter contract is pending the completion of dueapproval process of the counterparty. Notwithstanding, there is no assurance that the chartercontract will ultimately be executed by the counterparty. Such vessels are expected to capture therising demand for high-capacity and high-specification accommodation vessels specially cateringto the deepwater segment. These vessels will have modern structural designs (including one ofthe largest offshore heli decks), technology (such as DP3) and equipment and will be certified asComfort Class (DNV Notation (1A1) Ship shaped) by DNV by complying with strict noise andvibration control requirements. The specifications of these vessels include having a deck spaceof 2,000 square metres, a maximum deck load of 3,000 metric tonnes and 390 cabins of one, twoor four persons. According to Infield, as at the close of 2013, there were only three operationalSSAVs with berth capacity of more than 600-person and another three on order or under

    4

  • construction (including our two 750-person DP3 SSAVs). According to Infield, upon the delivery ofour two DP3 SSAVs, we will operate the youngest high-berth accommodation vessel fleet in theworld.

    As at the Latest Practicable Date, we have also ordered three 238-person DP2 accommodationvessels, of which two are scheduled to be delivered by the end of 2014 and one is scheduled tobe delivered by the first quarter of 2015. In addition, we have one vessel that is undergoingconversion into a 198-person accommodation vessel, which is expected to be delivered by thesecond quarter of 2014.

    When all of the accommodation vessels that are under construction or undergoing conversion aredelivered by 2015, our accommodation capacity will increase from 879 persons as at the LatestPracticable Date to 3,291 persons (this includes one 191-person accommodation vessel that iscommitted for sale after the Latest Practicable Date).

    Harbour Services and Emergency Response

    Our Harbour Services business has been operating for over 10 years. We own, operate andmanage a fleet of harbour tugs and heavy lift crane barges, which are actively engaged insupporting harbour towage operators and providing heavy lift services to shipyards engaged in theconstruction, and repair and conversion of ships and offshore drilling units, and other offshorestructures and topside production and processing facilities. In November 2013, our subsidiary,POSH Semco Pte. Ltd. (POSH Semco), was granted a public licence by the Maritime and PortAuthority of Singapore (MPA) for the provision of towage services to vessels within the limits ofthe port and the approaches to the port as described in Government Regulations. According toInfield, we are also one of the two main offshore support vessel operators globally to offeremergency response services which include salvage, wreck removal, rescue and oil-spillresponse services. Emergency, salvage and oil spill response services encompass emergencyassistance to vessels that encounter grounding, collision, incidences of fire and oil spillage as aconsequence of collisions and groundings. In particular, salvage refers to the process ofrecovering a vessel, its cargo, or other property after a shipwreck, grounding or other marineaccidents or incidents, and encompasses refloating, towing and recovery of a sunken, groundedor incapacitated vessel.

    Established reputation and long-standing relationships with key oil and gas industryplayers

    As a result of our proven international operating track record, we have built a strong reputationand an extensive network of customers including global oil and gas majors and international oiland gas contractors. Leading global shipyards and offshore engineering companies, such asSaipem, Hyundai Heavy Industries, Technip and SapuraClough Offshore, also work with us on aregular basis. Our reputation and long-standing relationships with customers enable us tocompete effectively and continue to grow our business.

    Strong parentage

    We believe that our Group benefits significantly from being a member of the KSL Group. Ourparent, KSL, shares common heritage with two other holding companies, namely, Kerry HoldingsLimited in Hong Kong and Kuok Brothers Sdn Bhd in Malaysia, in that they were all founded bythe Kuok family, which together with their related companies, are commonly referred to as theKuok Group. The Kuok Group is a well-regarded conglomerate with diversified investments incommodities, hospitality, logistics, real estate and shipping businesses, among others. The KuokGroup is the single largest shareholding group in listed companies such as Hong Kong-listedKerry Properties Limited, Shangri-La Asia Ltd. and SCMP Group Ltd. (publisher of the South

    5

  • China Morning Post), Singapore-listed Wilmar International Limited and Malaysia-listed PPBGroup Berhad (PPB) and Malaysian Bulk Carriers Berhad (MBC). Our parentage makes us apreferred partner for leading local entities when we enter new markets or form strategic alliances.

    As the dedicated offshore support vessel business of the KSL Group, we have ready access to theaffiliated shipyards of the KSL Group. We believe our strategic relationships with these shipyardswill allow us to respond rapidly to changing market dynamics through quick turnaround times fornewbuilds (although there is no publicly available information on the turnaround times for othershipyards) and manage our own maintenance and refurbishment costs as we enjoy operationaladvantages from our ready access to these shipyards such as the ability to gain a closer level ofcontrol and cooperation with the shipyards in terms of design and technical specifications, costingand procurement of equipment, and delivery timelines, as described below:

    We are actively engaged in determining the design and technical specifications of thevessels. In this regard, the specifications of the vessels and the identification and costing ofthe various engines, parts and technical equipment (including replacement parts andequipment) are specified by us. We are actively involved in the procurement of such engines,parts and equipment (including identifying and selecting the suppliers and engaging innegotiations with such suppliers) prior to the shipyards placing the orders for and importingthese engines, parts and equipment on our behalf for regulatory, operational and logisticalconvenience. In this way, we are able to gain a closer level of control over the costing ofengines, parts and equipment (including replacement parts and equipment), which in turntranslates into costs savings.

    We station our technical superintendents in the shipyards as our vessels are being built, tomonitor the construction and to ensure that the construction is correctly carried out inaccordance with our approved designs and specifications and to further ensure timelydelivery.

    Another perspective of timely delivery relates to a scenario where we require vessels for aspecific delivery in the future. This could be due to potential deployment or anticipation of asupply crunch for certain asset classes due to various reasons (for example, aging vesselsscheduled for scrap etc.), and in this regard, not all shipyards may have available berths andcapacity space to meet such future deliveries.

    Not all shipyards are willing to build vessels to bespoke design specifications and haveseparate arrangements on the equipment package; instead, they prefer to build repeatdesigns, to benefit from their experience and economies of scale and gain discounts for theirown benefit from equipment suppliers and manufacturers.

    Our transactions with the KSL Group are conducted on an arms length basis, as further detailedin the section on Interested Person Transactions and Potential Conflicts of Interest.

    Highly-experienced and committed management team with a proven track record

    We have a committed, experienced and highly-qualified management team led by our ChiefExecutive Officer and Executive Director, Mr. Seow Kang Hoe, Gerald who has more than 40years of experience in the shipping industry (including 15 years of sea-going experience and morethan 20 years of senior management experience), as further described in Management Directors. Our Executive Officers come with varied and synergistic backgrounds includingEngineering, Marine and Finance which enable them to lead and manage our Company.

    6

  • Our management team includes 12 shore-based Master Mariners and 23 Chief Engineers with anaggregate sea-going experience of more than 600 years, as at the Latest Practicable Date. Thedepth and diversity of our managements technical and operational expertise and experienceenable us to identify, evaluate and capitalise on market opportunities and to better anticipateindustry trends and invest in relevant assets to respond to our customers needs. In this regard,we have successfully expanded the scale of our fleet in terms of both capabilities and size (thevessels we operate grew from 98 vessels as at December 31, 2011 to 110 vessels as at the LatestPracticable Date, of which, as of the Latest Practicable Date, one vessel is undergoing conversioninto an accommodation vessel). Our extensive experience and expertise in marine operations,marine engineering and fleet management allow us to proactively manage our fleet and achievea high level of reliability, safety and efficiency in our operations.

    Recognising the technical capabilities required to operate and manage the two 750-person DP3SSAVs which we have ordered as at the Latest Practicable Date and which are scheduled fordelivery by the end of 2014, we have established an internationally-experienced managementteam with a proven track record. Heading this team is our Project Director, Operations, with morethan 30 years of experience in North Sea and Latin America, including 17 years of handlingday-to-day operations for four SSAVs.

    Strategy

    Broaden fleet diversification

    We look to continue to diversify our fleet and leverage on our multi-segment offshore capabilitiesto actively cross-sell our services and secure contracts that would otherwise be difficult as asingle-service provider.

    We are enhancing our market-leading positions in each of our OSV, T&I and HSER Segments (asfurther described under Our Competitive Strengths Well-positioned to capture marketopportunities across all our business segments), and also the capabilities of our OA Segment, bycurrently expanding our fleet through the acquisition of larger and more sophisticated vessels. Asof the Latest Practicable Date, we have on order and scheduled for delivery 15 vessels,comprising two deck cargo barges, two ASD harbour tugs, three DP2 accommodation vessels,three DP2 AHTS, two DP3 SSAVs, and three vessels which our joint ventures have on order. Inaddition, we have one vessel that is undergoing conversion into an accommodation vessel. Withrespect to the OA Segment, recognising the technical capabilities required to operate and managethe DP3 SSAVs, we have established an internationally-experienced management team with aproven track record (as further described under Our Competitive Strengths Highly-experienced and committed management team with a proven track record). With respect to theHSER Segment, in November 2013, our subsidiary, POSH Semco, was granted a public licenceby the MPA for the provision of towage services to vessels within the limits of the port and theapproaches to the port as described in Government Regulations. Please see Business Vessels to be Delivered for further details, including details on the contracted delivery date.Please also see Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results ofOperations Capital Expenditures and Divestments for further details on our contractualcommitments relating to vessels which our Company and our subsidiaries have on order andscheduled for delivery and how such committed future capital expenditures are expected to befunded.

    We adopt investment management processes in evaluating our fleet expansion plans. Factorswhich determine the level and timing of our fleet expansion include our assessment of the marketdemand and cost of investment for new vessels, our ability to secure attractive charter rates and

    7

  • our expected return on investment. By adhering to a disciplined and structured set of criteria forevaluating and determining the need for fleet expansion, we are able to maintain a sustainablegrowth model.

    Separately, we continue to upgrade our existing assets through our fleet optimisation programmeto further enhance our competitiveness and ability to secure new and more complex contracts.Under the fleet optimisation programme, we may dispose of older and/or lower-specificationvessels that are less efficient to operate and upgrade existing vessels with more sophisticatedtechnology and equipment. We may also acquire or build new vessels to optimise the number andmix of vessels within the fleet. For example, we have upgraded a DP1 AHTS into a DP2 AHTS.In addition, as at the Latest Practicable Date, we have one vessel that is undergoing conversioninto an accommodation vessel. Please see Business Vessels to be Delivered for furtherdetails, including details on the contracted delivery date. Please also see ManagementsDiscussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Capital Expendituresand Divestments for further details on our contractual commitments relating to vessels which ourCompany and our subsidiaries have on order and scheduled for delivery and how such committedfuture capital expenditures are expected to be funded. In this way, we continue to respond to ourcustomers requirements and are likely to secure charters at higher charter rates.

    Expand into deepwater offshore accommodation and other high-growth asset classes

    We intend to actively expand our fleet and venture into new market opportunities, such asdeepwater offshore accommodation, that are expected to be in high demand going forward.

    Our two SSAVs that are scheduled to be delivered by the end of 2014 were specially designed withadditional ancillary features to enhance the vessels overall functionality. The two vessels arebeing constructed using modern structural designs and are equipped with the latest technologyand specifications. Some key features include their DP3 technology, telescopic gangway, widedeck area and a moon-pool which provide us with the flexibility to expand into the Inspection,Maintenance and Repair (IMR) segment in the future. The IMR segment comprises routineinspection, maintenance and repair work to ensure system integrity and continued performance ofoffshore assets, including subsea facilities and installations. In particular, such work could involvea combination of services such as survey and maintenance of pipelines, support for diving,structural inspections, support for laying cables and hoses, bolt inspection and replacement,support for drilling, light inspection work, support for the maintenance of offshore infrastructuresand well stimulation. As at the Latest Practicable Date, we are in the final stages of procuring acharter contract for the commercial deployment of one of the vessels when it is delivered. Theexecution of the charter contract is pending the completion of due approval process of thecounterparty. Notwithstanding, there is no assurance that the charter contract will ultimately beexecuted by the counterparty.

    Aside from our high-capacity and high-specification offshore accommodation vessels, we areexploring entry into IMR services to complement our range of deepwater offshore services. Theseservices complement our Companys OSV services by allowing our Company to provide additionalvalue-added services (for instance, divers to conduct inspection and survey of deepwaterstructures) to customers of the OSV Segment in respect of deepwater structures that ourCompany has provided OSV services for. In connection with this, we are currently exploring thefeasibility of acquiring new asset classes such as IMR vessels. In December 2013, our Board ofDirectors gave in-principle approval for a capital expenditure budget of US$291.5 million which ismainly for the further expansion of our fleet (including the acquisition of multifunctional supportvessels (MSVs)) (as further described in Maintaining our growth momentum below). Save forthe foregoing, as at the Latest Practicable Date, our Company has not identified any specific IMRassets to be acquired. A decision to invest in these IMR assets has not yet been made and willbe subject to completion of our feasibility study on the provision of such services, including a study
