Amphibia Marine and Subsea Services OPC is a specialized provider of commercial diving and underwater maintenance solutions based in the Philippines. Established in 2019, the company operates within the maritime support sector, focusing on the maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) of vessels while they remain afloat. By offering services that eliminate the need for drydocking, the company assists shipowners and operators in maintaining vessel performance and regulatory compliance with minimal operational downtime.
The company’s core technical competencies revolve around subsea intervention and hull maintenance. Its operational portfolio includes underwater hull cleaning, propeller polishing, and underwater cutting and welding. These services are critical for maintaining vessel hydrodynamics, reducing fuel consumption, and preventing biofouling accumulation. In addition to maintenance, Amphibia Marine and Subsea Services performs underwater inspections, serving as an accredited provider for underwater surveys. The Maritime Industry Authority (MARINA) lists the company among the accredited entities authorized to conduct underwater surveys for ships, validating its adherence to national maritime safety and technical standards.
Beyond routine maintenance, the company has expanded its capabilities to include marine salvage operations, offering recovery services for vessels and cargo following maritime mishaps. The organization maintains a workforce of commercial divers trained to execute complex tasks in challenging marine environments, distinguishing its operations from recreational diving standards.
In 2024, Amphibia Marine and Subsea Services initiated a strategic expansion into the eastern seaboard of the Philippines through a cooperation agreement with the Aurora Pacific Economic Zone and Freeport Authority (APECO). This partnership involves conducting feasibility studies to establish offshore maintenance facilities in Casiguran Bay. This development aims to service vessels navigating the eastern maritime corridors, a region historically underserved by heavy marine maintenance providers. Since its inception, the company has delivered services to a diverse range of maritime assets, including commercial merchant vessels and naval ships. Through these operations, Amphibia Marine and Subsea Services functions as a key supporting link in the regional maritime logistics chain, ensuring that fleets remain seaworthy and operationally efficient without the interruptions associated with traditional drydocking cycles.
