“Some of the country’s most innovative and successful subsea companies have made it onto the final shortlist for this year’s

annual awards. Despite the downturn, these finalists have demonstrated that the UK subsea sector has what it takes

to rise to the challenge – identifying ways to improve productivity and deliver much needed efficiencies.

This ceremony allows us to come together once a year and really celebrate the expertise and pioneering work for which the

subsea industry is renowned.

The finalists have all demonstrated how they are supporting our subsea industry, now ‘Facing the Future’ and seeking to deliver

lasting results in the years to come.
