Overview

Shutdown and turnaround manpower.

Plant shutdowns and turnarounds demand large, skilled crews mobilised fast and demobilised cleanly. Crown Enterprises Overseas Employment supplies experienced shutdown & turnaround (TAR) manpower from Pakistan for oil, gas and petrochemical plants across the Gulf — trade-tested and ready to perform on tight timelines.

Who we are

Shutdown & turnaround staffing, handled by a licensed agency.

Crown Enterprises Overseas Employment is licensed by the Bureau of Emigration & Overseas Employment (OEP Licence 2868/RWP) and ISO 9001:2015 certified, working from Islamabad. We recruit, trade-test and document Pakistani workers for employers in the Gulf, Türkiye, Europe and the Balkans.

How it works

Five steps from demand to arrival.

  1. You send the demand. Roles, headcount, salary, contract length and start date. Crown replies in writing by the next working day.
  2. We source and trade-test. Candidates are tested in person in Pakistan; a tested shortlist reaches you within 5 to 10 working days.
  3. You interview and approve. Only the candidates you approve go forward.
  4. Permits and clearances. The permit route depends on the country; we set it out in the feasibility answer before you commit.
  5. Orientation and travel. Pre-departure orientation on duties, host-country culture and labour rights, then travel and arrival support.
Cost and paperwork

Your costs and your paperwork.

You pay Crown no sourcing, screening or trade-testing fee. Statutory items on your side, such as statutory permit and visa fees, and the contract package stay with you; flight tickets are agreed case by case. Workers are charged only the placement fee permitted by BEOE regulation.

To start, the employer typically provides four things: the demand letter, a power of attorney in Crown’s favour, the job contract, and whatever permit documents the destination country requires. See the full document list.
