Aquatic is an independent supplier of carousels, modular drive systems and tensioner solutions for the oil and gas, telecommunications and renewable energy industries worldwide. The company also specialises in laying and retrieving flexible and semi-rigid products on the seabed in shallow and deep water, and also has extensive experience in offshore installations, transpooling, recovery and decommissioning.

Martyn Conroy, Aquatic EMEA and Americas business development manager, said: “The industry needs to recruit well-qualified engineers and to provide a high level of training and experience for them in order to secure the future of the industry. DeepOcean’s graduate training programme and conversion engineering programme for those joining the industry are market-leading interventions that will be instrumental in supporting the growth of talented young engineers and helping them to flourish across the offshore subsea industry for many years to come.”

Katie Johnson, DeepOcean UK’s human resources manager, added: “We are pleased to have been able to secure the assistance of our suppliers in adding relevance and realism to our training programme. It is essential that we are able to give new entrants a good grounding in the industry, and there is no better way to learn than to hear directly. We appreciate Aquatic’s contribution and look forward to inviting them to participate again in the future.”
