Seanamic Group has acquired the business and trading assets of IMES, an inspection and monitoring engineering solutions company.
Headquartered in Aberdeen, with offices in Plymouth, Portsmouth, Rosyth and Sheffield, IMES provides bespoke monitoring and load measurement systems to the marine, maritime and oil and gas industries. In addition, IMES has a growing inspection product range which can diagnosis integrity issues including subsea electrical fault isolation, integrity assurance of FPSO (floating production, storage and offloading) risers and marine vessel tailshaft integrity assurance.
Seanamic, a provider integrated surface to seabed systems, is comprised of Glasgow-based Caley Ocean Systems, a marine handling systems specialist, and Houston-based Umbilicals International (UI), an umbilicals and cable manufacturer.
“The high quality inspection services and monitoring products offered by IMES are an excellent fit with our existing systems focused businesses,” said David Cooper, CEO, Seanamic Group. “As we operate in many of the same industry sectors, we see tremendous synergies with the range of IMES services and products. The acquisition by Seanamic provides IMES with the financial stability and access to future investment needed to ensure the long term stability of the business. All aspects of the old IMES business have transferred to a new company, IMES International, providing a seamless transition and removing the risk to ongoing service delivery.”
