Subsea Vessels
All vessels are classified by DNV or ABS, which are two of the leading classification societies. All vessels are subject to regular inspection by class surveyors, in addition to regular dry-docking and other planned maintenance. Another core competency for the Subsea Division is running its diving operations to world class standards, especially those set by the International Oil and Gas Producers Association (“OGP”).
