Survival Craft Inspectorate established links with Qatar based IRM as part of its plan to expand its network of international bases. The company signed a memorandum of understanding in Doha, in the presence of the chairman of IRM Offshore Services, H.E. Sheikh Saoud Bin Abdulrahman Al-Thani.

Angus Campbell, managing director of Survival Craft Inspectorate said, “We are delighted to have this opportunity to introduce our products and services to the Middle East market and will endeavour to deliver the standards of performance that have underpinned our growth in other parts of the world in recent years. We already operate from nine locations globally and this is a significant new step in terms of our international ambitions.”

The collaboration will see IRM offer lifesaving equipment and maintenance to Qatar’s onshore and offshore oil and gas industry.

Jaison Francis, director of operations said, “We selected Survival Craft Inspectorate to fulfil this demanding role as its current objectives and standards of expertise complement those of IRM in terms of the delivery of high quality products and services.”
