Based in Malaysia, Advantage Marine Services functions as a diversified technical service provider within the Southeast Asian maritime and energy landscapes. Since its inception in 2014, the company has developed a robust operational footprint, headquartered in Johor with strategic branches in Kuala Lumpur and Miri to support both peninsular and East Malaysian offshore activities. The firm primarily supports the shipping, oil and gas, and petrochemical industries through an integrated solution model that consolidates subsea intervention, topside engineering, and specialized inspection capabilities.
A significant portion of the company's operational identity rests on its underwater expertise. It executes complex commercial diving operations, including air and mixed-gas diving, hull cleaning, propeller polishing, and underwater repairs. These subsea activities are complemented by approved In-Water Surveys (IWS) and real-time CCTV inspections, validated by major international classification societies. Beyond the waterline, the organization has broadened its scope to include engineered steel fabrication, structural repairs, and piping renewal, allowing it to handle substantial maintenance projects for drilling rigs, mobile offshore production units, and commercial vessels.
The company also maintains a strong focus on asset integrity and safety through its specialized inspection divisions. It deploys technical teams for Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) and industrial rope access, facilitating maintenance in hard-to-reach areas of offshore platforms and ships. This division covers critical tasks such as lifting gear inspection, drop object surveys, and corrosion control. Further diversifying its portfolio, the firm undertakes accommodation upgrading projects, HVAC system maintenance, and instrumentation control services, ensuring habitability and operational efficiency for crewed assets.
Adhering to rigorous safety and quality standards, the organization operates under an Integrated Management System compliant with ISO protocols. By combining heavy engineering capabilities with specialized marine husbandry and salvage works, Advantage Marine Services plays a vital role in maintaining the operational readiness of the regional maritime fleet and offshore infrastructure. Its ability to mobilize resources across the Asia-Pacific region underscores its status as a key logistical and technical partner for upstream and downstream energy clients, supporting everything from routine vessel surveys to complex decommissioning projects.
