Sustainability at Resolve Marine

Dedicated to the communities where we work and live, and to global environmental stewardship.

For every emergency response, vessel salvage and wreck removal and project, our aim is to minimize the damage to the environment, property and cargo. Environmental management is often what we tackle first and last.

In both debris and contaminant cleanup, we work with government agencies, municipalities, communities, volunteers, and resources partners to marshal collective efforts in what are often catastrophic conditions. Our commitment from beginning to end is to return polluted waters to normal, thriving, pristine conditions.

Today, clients increasingly want to work with Resolve Marine because our environmental approach is aligned with their ESG values. After all, marine insurers, shipowners, ship managers and government agencies all have ESG values to uphold to their own stakeholders.

Our vision is to leave the world in a better place.

Highlights

Pollution Prevention. We measure quantities of debris recovered in tonnes and report annually to the International Salvage Union (ISU). The ISU, a member organization of 55 marine salvage companies from more than 30 countries, publishes results in its Annual Pollution Prevention Survey.
Environmental Response Equipment. Environmental remediation equipment is deployed by air, sea and truck from eight warehouses strategically located worldwide and 21 OPA 90 depots in the U.S. and U.S. territories. Environmental response equipment includes mechanical recovery devices such as skimmers, pumps, boom, temporary storage and dispersants and more. Equipment is physically inspected and maintained regularly.
Skilled Environmental Technicians. Oil spill response technicians, salvage technicians and commercial divers all play a critical role in ensuring that what is cleaned is properly disposed, a regulated process. Our skilled response professionals are deployed based on the unique requirements of a project and emergency response efforts.
