….and that’s not to mention the time my ex-missus tore Annie Wong off a strip on the phone one day 😀 Sarge was there at the time 🙂
Back on track:
TS Marine… I work for them through an agency.
They are like any other small company that is going through growing pains. They generally operate with larger Muliti role vessels, have new ROV systems and are starting to concentrate on their core business of wellhead removal. With that in mind TSM are also paying to train offshore personel in that area… that can’t be said for too many companies these days.
Over the next 24 month two ‘brand new out of the box’ Multi Role vessels will be delivered with one new hull being launched later this year.
In the meantime TSM are currently operating the Rem Etive and the Normand Flower.
You do need to look at TS Marine more as a vessel/project management company and not simply as an ROV operator.
I’m not leaping to their defence but, there again, I am not saying they are the dogs danglies either. TSM are another startup (well financed it seems) trying to establish themselves in a bullish market place.
All indications are (as announced to the markets) that TSM are making a profit so I do not see them disappearing any time soon.
I can think of far worse companies to work for and in the past I have done so! Divcon springs to mind as does Saipem (Sonsub) plus CTC are not high on my hit list either.
