The investment reflects the company’s continued evolution from its origins in survey rental to a broader subsea technology and engineering provider. The expanded mechanical portfolio supports an integrated delivery model combining survey, excavation, buoyancy, cutting, lifting, and recovery services within a single framework.
A key element of the division’s capability is the proprietary Uni-FlowX Controlled Mass Flow Excavation (CMFE) system. The system enables non-contact trenching, de-burial, and controlled asset exposure, supporting both construction and late-life decommissioning scopes where seabed preparation is required prior to cutting or recovery
The mechanical solution asset base has been expanded to include hydraulic subsea shears for controlled severance, high-performance diamond wire saws, twin recovery grabs for heavy lift retrieval, mattress recovery tools, and advanced back deck support equipment. Supporting systems such as hydraulic power units, spoolers, and engineered buoyancy solutions further enhance the company’s ability to execute integrated offshore removal campaigns.
Unique Group has also established strategic partnerships with RenOcean, broadening access to precision cutting technologies within its mechanical offering while maintaining full engineering oversight and delivery control.
Unique Group’s mechanical capability is supported by a global workforce of more than 650 professionals, including over 200 in-house engineers, providing structural analysis, lift calculations, Pre-FEED and FEED engineering studies, vessel interface design, and bespoke tooling development. This engineering capability enables mechanical systems to be designed and delivered as coordinated, project-specific solutions. The company delivers bespoke engineering solutions backed by global manufacturing and assembly facilities across key energy regions and provides experienced offshore personnel to support project execution from mobilization through completion.
“This investment strengthens our ability to deliver integrated mechanical spreads at scale,” said Karl Dale, Vice President – Subsea Mechanical, Unique Group. “There is an increasing demand for coordinated solutions that reduce interface complexity. Our focus is on engineering-led delivery and accountable project support.”
With 18 global locations, Unique Group combines regional manufacturing, assembly, and mobilization capability with consistent international engineering standards across major energy markets.
The expansion reinforces Unique Group’s commitment to delivering engineered, lifecycle-focused subsea solutions that reduce risk, simplify execution, and support the offshore industry’s evolving project demands.
