Established in 2000, Brone Positioning & Survey Limited has seen a number of changes in the geophysical and geotechnical survey market. We profile the firm and find out how they have coped with these changes and see what the future holds for them.

Company: Brone Positioning & Survey Limited Email: info@brone-survey.com Web Address: www.bronegroup.com Address: Plot 162, Abonnema close, Rumuogba Estate, Port-Harcourt, Rivers State, Nigeria Telephone: +234 84 465 083, +234 1 2700 338

Brone Positioning & Survey Limited is a 100% indigenous marine geophysical and geotechnical survey company incorporated in the year 2000. Prior to this, the entity which later became known as Brone had supported local survey companies until 2000 when Brone was formed to directly service the West African Offshore Petroleum Industry. Brone’s core operations range from marine geophysical, geotechnical, hydrographic and metocean solutions for all offshore and deepwater operations; to construction support, provision of specialized vessels and geological field appraisal studies. With over a decade of trailblazing, ground-breaking achievements and strategic technical alliances, Brone is positioned for the future, being solidly established as an industry leader in marine oilfield survey services. In 2008, the company acquired the RV Brone Explorer, a dedicated geophysical survey vessel, the first of its kind in the African region with proven 2D Ultra High Resolution (2DHR) seismic capabilities. In 2012, a second survey vessel was acquired; DSV Brone Investigator, a specialized dynamically positioned (DP) geotechnical survey vessel with additional four-point mooring capabilities. Early in 2013, a third vessel, the SV Brone Navigator, a specialized anchor handling tugs and survey vessel was acquired. With more than 300 survey & positioning jobs successfully executed near shore Nigeria, offshore Nigeria and West Africa, the firm’s technical competence is proven. Rig positioning, Site Surveys, Geotechnical Surveys and Geophysical Surveys have been executed for many clients namely Chevron Nigeria Limited, Addax Petroleum development Nigeria Limited, Shell Petroleum development company of Nigeria, Total Nigeria plc, Moni Pulo limited, Euroil Limited Cameroon, Nigerian Agip Oil Company and ExxonMobil Producing Nigeria, to mention a few. 2D High Resolution seismic surveys have been executed in many sites in Nigeria for many companies including Addax Petroleum development Nigeria Limited, Chevron Nigeria, Nigerian Agip Oil Company & Total Nigeria PLC. Now more than ever, Brone Survey has strategically positioned herself solely to meet the needs of the oil and gas companies in the area of 2D high resolution seismic surveys & Geotechnical Surveys by her acquisition of specialized vessels, seismic streamers, seismic acquisition electronics, an engineering sensor kit (positioning) and on-board quality control processing tools and research/ Geotechnical vessels. The firm is in a unique position in the market as they are the first and only African Survey company currently operating with Marine 2D High Resolution Geo-Hazards Seismic Survey capabilities.

In addition to this, Brone Survey combines skills in hydrography, geophysics and geotechnics with the mastery of various service related equipment resulting in a well packaged, cost effective marine survey solution which helps them to stand out from their competitors. Another factor which makes Brone unique in the market is that they are the first survey company in Africa to purchase Kraken deep water sonar. Our Conoil – OPL 290 Geophysical Survey project of ANIM-1X recorded zero downtime, zero LTI & Shortest project turnaround time from mobilization to submission of the final report. Other major projects that the firm has undertaken include: AGIP – OPL 245 Geophysical and Geomorphological Surveys (Deep water Project), Addax OML 123 & 137 and other significant projects include various Rig moves, Barge Positioning and Marker Buoy Installation carried out for various Oil & Gas companies. These projects would not be possible without Brone’s unique technology and innovative approach. Within the marine survey industry, safety is paramount and Brone take this very seriously. The firm operates a health, safety and environmental management system which is in accordance with and is fully integrated with a quality management system. Together these systems conform to all national and international legislation as well as industry guidelines and provide mechanisms for integration with the company’s management system. Furthermore, Brone Survey operations are conducted in full compliance with the international quality standard ISO 9001:2000. Brone also undertakes the implementation of quality control procedures on behalf of their clients to ensure the results of every survey are accurate and reliable. The firm act as client representatives on rig positioning and other offshore survey projects to ensure that the contractor involved complies with client work specifications. It is a challenging time working in the industry at the moment, as skills shortages have driven a number of similar industries causing serious issues, but Brone has successfully navigated through this and has a well-balanced crew for our offshore operations and experienced hands. Ultimately the firm has managed to achieve the desired level of competencies required for their operations by attracting staff using their state of the art equipment. Competent and dedicated staff is especially important to Brone as the firm operates has an ethos dedicated to promoting and ensuring uncompromising standards of excellence in their results. In order to ensure they get the best from their workers, the firm ensures they are treated fairly by enforcing uncompromising levels of job ethics.


Brone Positioning & Survey Ltd

Working within West African Region, especially in Nigeria, provides the firm with a number of additional challenges. There are community related challenges faced while working in the Nigerian region, as industry partnerships can often be difficult to forge and there are legislative problems to deal with as well. However, there are also a lot of opportunities in working in the Nigerian region. There are training opportunities for staff which enhance their ability to fulfil their duties and help them develop personally. Additionally there are opportunities to develop communities within the area the firm works in, thereby fulfilling Brone’s social responsibilities, which is an important factor for the firm.

Looking to the future, there are a number of exciting opportunities which Brone Surveys is looking to take advantage of, such as strategic expansion into other West African countries which will afford them access to new markets and exciting new projects. The firm is also looking into consolidating the business structure for perpetual continuity of the Group, in addition to achieving 100% indigenous manpower development through maritime training facility and technology transfer.

Our main expertise and experience is in developing the small scale supply chain, and we have also covered a few projects where we drew up regional distribution master plans. Where it was required, we added potential upstream and downstream systems to be part of the small scale LNG Feeders in which we are involved. Since 2005, we have added to our portfolio the off-shore receiving serminals – FSRU. LNG Services by Dynamic Shipping started in our homeland of Israel, where we have focused the government on the advantages of FSRU in enhancing the country’s security of supply. We were among the very few parties to push and preach for LNG into the country, and took every possible opportunity to explain to the public, large companies, electricity companies, parliament members, ministers about the ability, advantages and availability of LNG for our future natural gas industry. Once the Government Prequalification Tender was issued in October 2009, we brought one of the world’s leading providers of this service into the tender. In early 2010 we passed the PQ, and built a consortium for the FSRU company. Under this sector, we managed to run some feasibility studies and Pre-FEED work for several companies worldwide. Our feasibility study program examined the potential and opportunities to use LNG Feeders and draw all options for such a service – to allow the best Tailor Made Solution build up to the specific project. We are geared to serve any size entity up to the corporate and governmental level. Any of the above services can be given to any size entity up to the corporate and governmental level.

Company: Miko Marine AS Name: Nicolai Michelsen, General Manager Postal address: P.O. Box 1534 Vika, N-0117 Oslo, NORWAY Visiting address: Ruseløkkveien 26, N-0251 Oslo, NORWAY Telephone: +47 46 90 50 00 Fax: +47 22 83 65 15 E-mail: info@miko.no Web: www.miko.no

Miko Marine provides unique tools and services in the maritime, offshore and subsea industry. We focus on oil spill prevention, the blanking off sea chests and hull apertures and the use of underwater magnets.

The company was founded in 1996 on the idea of using a magnetic patch for stopping seawater leaking into a floating vessel -or to stop oil leaking from the vessel into the sea. The magnetic patch, called the Miko Plaster®, has since been delivered to several hundreds of clients worldwide for immediate use in emergency situations, for retention and carriage in anticipation of emergencies and for use during planned underwater operations such as in-water surveys that require the closure of part of a vessel’s structure.

goes for all the Three Lines of Defence, and is what separates us from the rest.

The Miko Plaster® has been developed into several sub-types while new tools have been introduced such as the series of powerful Miko Permanent Magnets and the Miko Anchor Magnets which complements it significantly. Miko Plasters®, magnets and supplementary tools required for installation are offered in kits assembled for specific purposes. The kits are pre-packed and stored ready for despatch to anywhere in the world at short notice.

The marine and offshore oil industries are both experiencing trends in legislation that are moving towards an ever greater focus on safety and environmental protection. The extraordinary costs of any environmental damage are encouraging a greater awareness of the risks of pollution and the need to identify solutions to them. Modern technology and comprehensive safety legislation is leading to a steady reduction in the number of marine casualties, while a new generation of people is willing to protect the globe helped by an increased understanding that prevention is better than cure.

With substantial investments in research and development, we are continuously expanding our range of products and services in the marine industry. ShipArrestor and the Moskito are the latest additions, both being game-changers as original new solutions to persistent problems. With the experience gained from using the Miko Plaster® for 17 years and a large network of salvage masters, divers and expert advisers familiar with our products, we can support our clients in the field with operational services according to the needs of each individual customer. We offer oil spill prevention through the application of what we term as our ‘Three Lines of Defence’: 1st line: ShipArrestor and sea anchor solutions – This is a sea anchor that is delivered by helicopter to create a lifeline for ships of any size that are drifting without power and in danger of running aground. 2nd line: Miko Plaster – Magnetic or flexible emergency patches fitted by divers to seal holes in ships thereby keeping water on the outside and oil on the inside. 3rd line: Moskito – A specially developed tool that can penetrate the hulls of sunken ships and extract any trapped oil before it can leak out to cause pollution. When it comes to oil spill prevention, the main difference between Miko and other suppliers in the field is that we have the capability to prevent the oil spill from happening in the first place, rather than containing it after it already happened. This

10 AI Guide to Arbitration 2015

The key factor is that the Ship Arrestor, the Miko Plasters and the Moskito are all completely unique products that are unavailable from any other supplier. They were all invented, designed and developed by Miko engineers as a solution to existing problems for which nobody else was offering a practical answer. Miko Plasters have been used on a number of occasions to prevent ships sinking.

After two years of intense research and development, the oil removal tool Moskito was successfully demonstrated in its final form to the Norwegian Coastal Administration in December. With thousands of wrecked ships around the globe containing oils that will eventually be liberated by corrosion or vessel movement, the Moskito is the first tool to offer the world a quick and practical means of removing the danger. The ShipArrestor was officially introduced to the market as the Factory Acceptance Test was successfully completed in September. Now, instead of coastal states just watching as drifting ships break up and pollute their shores, they finally have a means to prevent the disaster occurring. A new generation of Miko Plaster intended for the quick repair of land-based storage tanks was demonstrated to Statoil. The patches were assembled together with powerful magnets in a new kit called the Tank Sealer Kit. After the successful demonstration, Statoil purchased 17 kits for distribution to their tank farms in August last year. The successful launch of the ROV (Remotely Operated Vehicle) magnet has introduced a versatile and valuable tool for the use of subsea engineers. Our region of Norway and Scandinavia in general has traditionally been an early adopter of new technologies of all sorts. The region has pioneered a number of developments in shipping and this creates an environment where innovation is encouraged, respected and supported. Inventors are less likely to experience the same suspicion that


Miko Marine AS

occurs in other countries. End users are prepared to rely on their own judgement of a new product and will be the first to buy it if they believe that it will meet their needs. In Scandinavia, unlike so many other parts of the world, people do not rush to be second but trust their own judgement and step out as the first user of a new product if they think that it will meet their needs. This, in turn, encourages firms such as Miko to invest in the development of new ideas because we know that we will not be confronted by a market that is unwilling to believe in something just because it is new.

Looking towards the future, we will be pushing to introduce the Moskito to the market and to be the first to remove the environmental threat posed by so much sunken oil.

In shipbuilding, where a lot of dreams lead to designs of experimental ships, we Company: had the luck to meet one shipowner who taught us that the ideal boat was the one which is practical, reliable and economic, in order to allow him to develop MSI Solutions Chantiers ALLAIS his business. This meeting, in 1987, has been the start point of a partnership, in which each one brought the knowledge of its trade in order to define a ship that matched the Address: Atelier Mécanique requirement of its mission, which was really innovative on the market, consisting to replace large ships by smaller ones, doing the same job.

On the other hand, the partnership led also to engage a reflection about the model of organization that could allow to save costs of construction, what was a shared problematic between the shipowner and the shipyard: the first one learnt to standardize his requirements, working in close collaboration with the study office of the company, to finalize a project about which no change could be brought during the construction, the second one learnt to standardize the process of the works that was integrated in a management tool developed by the informatics services of the company since 2003, to facilitate the planning of works and logistics, reducing the cost of delays supply and the lack of prevision in the piloting of works, main sources of costs in an artisanal organization, which is the most traditional way of doing of small shipyards. All these common reflections and actions have benefited to the shipowner and to the shipyard, what explain the unusual length of a relation that continues today, for nearly 30 years, what is perhaps, the main innovation of this experience. Chantiers ALLAIS is well armed, thanks to the experiments acquired, to face the future, and to innovate a long time yet. François Allais President - Chantiers Allais

Chantiers ALLAIS was established in 1984, in a garage of 72 m², where Stéphane and François ALLAIS built their first ships, Optimists, for sailing schools. Today the shipyard is located in an infrastructure of 18000 m², in Cherbourg, where they have built ships up to 35 m. We spoke to François Allais about the growth of their company and how they continue to innovate in the shipbuilding industry.

Over the past thirty last years, the development of our company has been based on a continued improvement of the capacity of the shipyard to offer clients the right tools for their trade, and also at the right price. Our desire to improve has led the company strategy in terms of our organisation and the products we provide. Constantly innovating and improving has been at the have been at the heart of what we do, and is the reason why we have survived so long in the French shipbuilding industry. Since Chantiers ALLAIS’ inception, a lot of shipyards in France have disappeared. In the domain of shipbuilding, where the work of the engineers really is an art form, innovation depends on the capacity to combine the state of the art as well as fulfilling the specific requirements of the mission of the ship. Both of these combined require a high level of expertise and an indepth knowledge of the job at hand. Therefore, at Chantiers ALLAIS, pragmatic innovation is the constant preoccupation of everyone, with one main aim: the satisfaction of the client. Our confidence has been built throughout the years, mainly as a result of many ships successfully built which can be considered as proof that the company has made all the right choices. Furthermore, these decisions also provide us with guidelines for the future. In the earlier years of our company, I had a chance meeting with one experienced shipowner who taught us that the ideal boat was the one which is practical, reliable and economic, in order to allow him to develop his business. This meeting, in 1987, was the starting point of a partnership, in which each one of us brought the knowledge together to define a ship that matched the requirement of its mission. At the time we brought about a really innovative idea to the market, which involved replacing large ships with smaller ones which could basically do the same job. The success came soon, and today, the range of ships well known in offshore oil and gas under the name of SURFER, has become the benchmark for small high speed crew boats, and is the archetype of this kind of ship, even if the original has never been equalled by copies. In this partnership, the mission of the shipyard has consisted in developing some innovations that brought solutions to ship owner’s several preoccupations, including the eas-

iness of maintenance, the reliability of propulsion and the improvement of comfort. Shipbuilding always involves a level of compromise, and the main difficulty is to prioritise the requirements, and it is the job of the ship owner to define them and the job of the designer to find the best correlation between them. In that way, this relationship involves them each playing a different role, in the respect of the constraints of each other, but with the common aim to do the best ship, at the best price. Some technical innovations have also been developed, as for example, in 1996, the resilient mounting of the superstructure that had never been tested before on a high speed craft has brought a huge improvement against noise nuisances. On the other hand, the partnership also led to us reflecting on a model of organisation that could allow people to save costs of construction, which was a shared problem between the shipowner and the shipyard. The former learned to standardise his requirements, working in close collaboration with the study office of the company, to finalise a project about which no change could be brought during the construction. The latter learned to standardise the process of the works that was integrated in a management tool developed by the informatics services of the company in 2003. This tool facilitates the planning of works and logistics, and reduces the cost of delays supply and the lack of prevision in the piloting of works. All of these common reflections and actions have benefited to the shipowner and to the shipyard, and are processes which have continued to be used today. As a company that has survived for 30 years, Chantiers ALLAIS is well armed for the future and will continue to innovate.
