UMC Expands Dive Operations in Labuan to Increase Service Offering in Asia

Thursday 3 November 2016

UMC has expanded its operations in Labuan to offer inshore operational support in addition to the existing offshore services.

The offshore division of UMC (formerly Core-IRM) has been based in Labuan for several years serving the afloat inspection and repair needs of the drilling market and has now been equipped to undertake all standard underwater maintenance services. Located centrally to the large range of vessels and platforms in Labuan and Brunei Bay the base is also in close proximity to the nearest anchorage.

Investment in the new operational base in Labuan will allow UMC to not only respond faster to client requests but importantly offer a greater range of services to the needs of commercial shipping, rigs, floating storage units and offshore support vessels.

UMC has operational hubs in Europe, the Middle East as well as South East Asia, with existing bases in Singapore and Malaysia. As a member of the OneOcean™ network its footprint is further extended to North America and North East Asia. In addition UMC has a worldwide network of more than 100 approved partners, which enables it to deliver its service in more than 300 locations globally.
