The DR Group Information

The DR Group is the UK’s largest owner-operator of guard vessels. We support offshore build, maintenance and survey work for the oil, gas and offshore energy sectors in European waters. A full-time guard vessel operator, we develop our own cutting edge technology, innovative operating models and systems in order to deliver contracts seamlessly and efficiently. Vessels and engineering you can depend on. People and technology you can rely on. To maintain our market-leading position we need to provide an outstanding service to our clients no matter what variables we have to contend with during our offshore work, such as adverse weather conditions, crew illnesses, mechanical faults, rogue vessels within our Guard Zones, project over-runs and so forth. By owning our own vessels, workshops, and technology, whilst maintaining a team of highly trained guard vessel specialists, we can deliver a first-class uninterrupted service to the standards that the energy giants, utility companies and key stakeholders demand of us. No matter what issues come our way. With damage repairs to submarine cables potentially costing tens of millions and live offshore projects running at millions per day, we recognise the valuable role we need to play to ensure subsea assets are protected professionally and effectively. Our specialist vessels are adapted for purpose and part of a fleet with an emergency reserve. Our skippers and crew are dedicated full time to maritime asset protection work. Our tech that supports it all is bespoke and designed specifically for asset protection.
