Unique Group, global subsea and offshore solutions provider, has announced to extend its service profile to include diving and industrial gas supply for the African offshore market from its base in Cape Town, South Africa

The extension of capabilities includes the full range of diving, welding, industrial, laboratory, test and calibration gases, chemical tanks and gas storage equipment, which aim to bolster the group’s diving and life support division, thereby offering a complete solution for the diving industry.

As part of the integrated package offered to clients, Unique Group will supply diving gas, speciality gas and gas storage equipment on a sale and rental basis to its diving and life support customers across Africa. These service offerings are expected to add to the existing range of specialised solutions and services for the marine, diving and survey industries.

“The expansion will significantly simplify procurement processes and reduce operating costs for clients. All equipment ranging from saturation and air dive systems to hyperbaric chambers and diving gas equipment is manufactured and supplied to stringent quality and safety requirements,” said Unique Group.

The new service line will be headed by Vishvas Chauhan who has 15 years of experience in the oil and gas industry with strong focus on offshore and onshore gas requirements.

He commented, “This new sector offering will play a major role in enabling us to deliver a sustainable, reliable and cost-effective service to the African oil and gas industry.”

Rodney McKechnie, group director at Unique Group, further noted, “The African market is paramount to the overall success of our diving and life support division and Vishvas’ appointment is strategic as we look forward to further strengthen our operations in the region.”
