Based in the State of Kuwait, Volcans Marine Services operates as a specialized provider of commercial diving and underwater technical solutions. The company serves the maritime and offshore industries by delivering a range of subsea maintenance, inspection, and repair services designed to support vessel operational readiness and structural integrity. Centered in the Hawally district, the firm deploys teams of industry professionals to execute complex tasks beneath the waterline, catering to the needs of shipowners, operators, and maritime infrastructure managers in the region.
A primary component of the company’s operations involves underwater maintenance and husbandry. To ensure vessels maintain optimal hydrodynamic performance, Volcans Marine Services conducts mechanical hull cleaning and propeller polishing. These procedures are critical for reducing drag and fuel consumption, allowing ships to operate more efficiently without the need for dry-docking. Beyond routine cleaning, the company undertakes technical repair works, including underwater welding and cutting, as well as plugging and blanking operations. These capabilities allow for immediate onsite remediation of hull defects or equipment failures, minimizing downtime for commercial vessels.
The company is deeply integrated into the regulatory framework of the shipping industry through its inspection capabilities. It holds approvals from major classification societies, including the American Bureau of Shipping (ABS), Det Norske Veritas (DNV), Bureau Veritas (BV), and Lloyd’s Register (LR). These credentials authorize the firm to perform in-water surveys and underwater inspections that satisfy class requirements. Such surveys enable vessel operators to assess hull conditions and verify compliance with safety standards while the vessel remains afloat.
In addition to ship-specific services, the organization extends its expertise to broader marine construction and emergency response sectors. Its operational portfolio includes salvage and recovery missions, assisting in the retrieval of lost assets or distressed vessels. The company also supports marine construction projects, involving installation and maintenance of underwater structures. Furthermore, Volcans Marine Services addresses environmental concerns through monitoring and cleanup initiatives, ensuring that marine ecosystems are protected during industrial activities. All operations are conducted under established quality management systems, with the company maintaining ISO 9001 certification to standardize its safety and service delivery protocols.
