MES Managing Director, Steven Alexander said: “This is an exciting contract win for MES, and we are delighted with the confidence placed in our services. We look forward to a successful partnership on this and future projects.”
Marine mammals are protected in the UK, and companies operating in UKCS waters take their responsibilities seriously. MMO, PAM and ADD is a simple, low-cost mitigation measure that ensures companies comply with regulations for the monitoring and protection of marine life.
Marine Environmental Solutions provides a range of additional services for the offshore energy industries including noise mitigation, seabed clearance, marine survey, and marine support.
