Paul Whiley – Managing Director @ Subtech Offshore added “For Subtech, fulfilling our Quality Assurance roll-out to industry expectations means that diving equipment quality has to be amongst the cornerstone markers for our careful consideration. Whilst it is always great to have shiny new kit, safety inextricably remains the primary driver, and on this subject, there can obviously be no compromise. To this end, we are especially pleased with what Mike Jessop and his team have put together for us and I would like to thank them most sincerely. It is in fact most rare these days in business that product quality comfortably exceeds client expectations in every aspect – with these builds we have that. Subtech will remain compliant arguably for decades into the future, as we use this equipment to take us forward. Having had a really good look at what has been delivered, quite frankly some of it is perhaps even a little “over the top”, [with particular reference here to the machinery containers, which are literally perfect]! – Needless to say, this delivery has pleased our clients, our divers and naturally so too our shareholders, and we thank Mike’s team again.”
Mike Jessop – Managing Director @ Unique Hydra commented on the magnitude of the contract saying, “It was refreshing to see new equipment requirements being realised in the industry and the progressive view taken by Subtech Qatar management. Not only is the equipment meeting the current requirements of IMCA and OGP, but also fulfils the newly proposed IMCA D023 requirements and other FMEA system needs.”
