Atlantis Marine Services operates as a specialized commercial diving and subsea engineering contractor, deeply integrated into the maritime logistics infrastructure of the United Arab Emirates. Based strategically within the Port of Fujairah, one of the world’s most critical bunkering and anchorage hubs, the company functions as a vital support mechanism for the global shipping industry. Its primary mission revolves around maintaining vessel seaworthiness and operational efficiency through advanced underwater interventions. By maintaining a physical presence in this high-traffic maritime corridor, the organization facilitates immediate access to vessels requiring urgent husbandry or inspection before continuing their international voyages.
The core of the company's operational portfolio consists of comprehensive underwater ship husbandry. Recognizing the direct correlation between hull condition and fuel consumption, the firm executes specialized hull cleaning and propeller polishing services designed to remove marine fouling and reduce hydrodynamic drag. These operations utilize proprietary hydraulic equipment and hydrojet systems capable of treating various coating types, including delicate silicon-based paints, without compromising the hull's integrity or anti-fouling layers. Beyond routine maintenance, the company provides technical underwater surveys and inspections. Utilizing state-of-the-art Closed Circuit Television (CCTV) systems, their divers generate detailed data required by classification societies and vessel owners to assess structural health and verify compliance without the need for dry-docking.
To support its offshore activities, the company maintains a dedicated fleet of diving support vessels and anchor handling tugs, allowing for rapid deployment across the anchorage area. This fleet enables a broad spectrum of subsea engineering applications, ranging from underwater welding and cutting to complex repairs such as blanking seawater inlets and securing hull cracks. A distinct capability of the firm is its proficiency in anchor salvage and recovery operations. Equipped with side-scan sonar and heavy-lifting winches, the company locates and retrieves lost ground tackle from the seabed, a critical service in a busy anchorage where equipment loss can cause significant operational delays.
The organization operates under rigorous safety and quality frameworks, holding approvals from major international classification societies to perform in-water surveys. Its alignment with global diving standards is evidenced by its investment in safety infrastructure, including on-site decompression facilities. Through these integrated services, Atlantis Marine Services sustains the operational readiness of merchant fleets, ensuring that vessels transiting the Middle East remain compliant, efficient, and structurally sound.
