The Underwater Centre in Fort William and Unique System (UK) Ltd have formally concluded an agreement for the representation of The Underwater Centre in the Aberdeen area.
A Unique Maritime Group Company, Unique System (UK) Ltd will highlight The Underwater Centre’s services and facilities to the industry. These include subsea trials facilities, commercial diver and ROV pilot technician training, as well as bespoke corporate training courses essential for the oil and gas and renewable energy organisations globally.
The partnership will effectively give The Underwater Centre representation and the availability of a local contact in Aberdeen. Unique will benefit from being partnered with a world-renowned and well-established subsea training provider.
Tom Houghton, Unique’s sales manager, believes the partnership will be a great success and is coming at an exciting time for both companies: “The Underwater Centre is highly respected within the industry and we’re pleased to have established this partnership which will see us working closely with them.”
Steve Ham, general manager at The Underwater Centre, added: “It’s great that we have created this working relationship with Unique, which will give us more of a presence in the Aberdeen area.
“Tom has been up to visit the Centre and was impressed with the facilities and the products we offer. It’s good to have him on board helping us to demonstrate our extensive capabilities to organisations in the oil and gas and renewable sectors.”
