Global Marine Launches New Business Unit

Global Marine Group (GMG) has launched a new business unit, Global Offshore, that will deliver trenching and power cable laying services to the oil and gas sector. 

Operating from base in Aberdeen, Scotland, managing director Mike Daniel leads the Global Offshore team.

Global Offshore’s assets include the M/V Symphony multi-purpose vessel, two Q1400 jet trenchers and two work class remotely operated vehicles (ROVs).

In addition, depending on the needs of specific projects, Global Offshore will have access to GMG’s full fleet, including four specialist cable installation and repair vessels, four maintenance vessels and 16 crew transport vessels.

“Offshore oil & gas customers, who often operate under demanding conditions, have always been important to the Global Marine Group,” said Ian Douglas, chief executive officer of Global Marine Group.  “Adding industry leading and highly sought-after specialist trenching capabilities to our offering should create significant opportunities for our customers and for the entire Global Marine Group for years to come.”
