Australian subsea services providers unite into one

Australian companies Geo Oceans, part of Vertech Group, and Blue Ocean Marine Services have merged, combining Geo Oceans’ small ROV, subsea inspection, and marine science technologies with Blue Ocean’s expertise in unmanned and remotely operated survey technologies.

“We are excited about this merger as it represents a natural evolution of the joint venture… Combining our capabilities, we can support our clients by leveraging the latest small subsea robotic technologies to deliver reduced cost, reduced health and safety exposure, and reduced scope 3 carbon emissions across all operations,” said Nick Veitch, Managing Director of Geo Oceans.

Geo Oceans will now take over Blue Ocean Marine Services. According to the company, the move aligns with its commitment to delivering unparalleled underwater services using small underwater robotics platforms while expanding presence in key markets.

“Our three-year partnership with Vertech Group has demonstrated the significant benefits of working together,” said Mike Deeks, Group Managing Director of Blue Ocean Marine Tech Systems.

“We are confident that the merger between Blue Ocean Marine Services and Geo Oceans will strengthen Geo Oceans ability to meet the evolving needs of its clients and deliver exceptional project outcomes. We look forward to exploring opportunities to work collaboratively with Vertech Group companies in the future.”
