This development follows the successful four-year operation of IMAS’ sister company Maritime Global Services (MGS), which continues to exclusively provide MQA services to its energy major client.

The creation of IMAS enables Northern Marine to expand its marine quality assurance expertise to a broader market while maintaining MGS as a dedicated service provider for its client. With IMAS, the same high standards and robust processes honed through MGS are now available to a wider range of clients across the marine industry.

IMAS's mission is to minimize risks in marine transportation and operations, ensuring the safety, security, and environmental compliance of vessels, terminals, and marine infrastructure. With a focus on safeguarding people, assets, and the environment, we are proud to deliver a comprehensive suite of services, including:

• Marine Quality Assurance
• Vessel Inspections
• Marine Terminal Inspections
• Marine Security
• Marine Consulting
• Offshore Marine Assurance
• Dynamic Positioning Assurance
  
  Philip Fullerton, Managing Director, Northern Marine Group, said: “The launch of International Marine Assurance Services is a key milestone in Northern Marine Group’s history of high-quality service provision to the marine and energy industries.
  
  “Building on our years of experience in marine quality assurance, IMAS will serve a wider range of clients, providing the same high standard of quality assurance, safety, and environmental compliance that our brands are known for.
  
  “This expansion also allows Maritime Global Services to continue delivering exceptional service to its major client while IMAS caters to the wider market."

While IMAS is a new entity in the marine quality assurance landscape, it is founded on the proven track record of MGS and the deep expertise that have been accumulated in minimizing risk associated with marine transportation and terminal operations. 

IMAS and MGS are separate companies, with distinct operations. This separation ensures that both entities can continue to focus on their respective markets while maintaining the highest standards of service and professionalism.

Northern Marine Group is confident that IMAS will quickly establish itself as a trusted leader in marine quality assurance, offering clients the same level of service excellence that is synonymous with MGS.

We look forward to supporting the industry with our comprehensive MQA services and are excited about the future as we continue to grow and expand our offerings.

IMAS offers a global service, while headquartered in Glasgow, United Kingdom.
