SGS is an underwater repair, maintenance and marine solutions provider for the global marine industry.

“With this collaboration SGS is able to deliver high-end service to Lagersmit customers in North America, Central America and the Caribbean. SGS was the obvious choice to be our service agent in the region because it has professionally trained divers and technicians to carry out repairs previously possible only out of the water,” said Michel Chiel, service manager at Lagersmit. “Their main support will be on regular maintenance and in addition Subsea Global Solutions makes it possible to run underwater service on Lagersmit seals.”
