Mako Offshore

Mako Offshore was incorporated in 2019 as a long-held ambition of Mike and Ewen to deliver commercially and/or technically differentiated versions of the services that they had become familiar with over their careers. The experience mix between them spans onshore, offshore (subsea and topside), inspection and engineered solutions amongst others. Common to both is the ability to apply technology to create client value through reducing overall cost, improving scheduling and delivering quality.
