Subsea Supplies has signed a new contract with Innerspace to become its exclusive UK and European distributor and certified service center for its full line of electric and hydraulic thrusters. Distribution will be managed from the company’s newly expanded Aberdeen facility, where the workshop has grown by a third to accommodate increasing project activity.

The agreement allows Subsea Supplies, a trusted supplier of market-leading offshore and underwater technology equipment, to bring faster access to advanced thruster technology to its customers across Europe, with local inventory reducing delivery times and downtime for operators. 

Additionally, as a certified full-service center, the company will also provide regional support through repairs, overhauls, diagnostics, and upgrades -  enhancing reliability, technical expertise, and providing a dedicated on-the-ground service for its customers.

Pauline McCann, operations director at Subsea Supplies, said: 
“The subsea industry is changing fast, and this partnership gives our clients quicker access to advanced thruster technology with the reassurance of local service. 

“We’re proud to partner with Innerspace as its first official distributor as we recognise the benefits and efficiencies its technology will provide for our clients. Now, with our increased workshop space and stockroom availability, we can cut lead times and costs to customers whilst streamlining the product offering with our in-house repairs and auditing.”

This partnership is Innerspace’s first official distributor agreement, advancing its strategy to expand global support capabilities and broaden its market presence.

Omar Rafeh, vice president of Innerspace said: 
“As our first official distributorship, it’s a pivotal step in expanding our operational reach and strengthening our international growth strategy. By collaborating with a reputable and established UK-based company like Subsea Supplies, we’ve unlocked localised inventory, technical expertise and faster customer response times in the UK, Europe and beyond.”

Continuing its drive for growth in its 25th year, Subsea Supplies has also invested in a new neoprene moulding machine, grown its technical team and added additional store space to aid increased production and stockholding. 

The company has also launched a new website to house its enhanced product offering to customers and showcase its capabilities.

Mrs McCann continues: 
“It’s an exciting time for the company and our growth is a testament to our commitment to innovation and focus on partnerships that allow us to evolve and serve customers globally.”

The expansion follows the company’s record-breaking financial year, reporting a turnover of £10 million in 2024. Subsea Supplies provides advanced offshore and subsea technology, serving the ROV, AUV, ocean science, and defence sectors.
