Gold Standard: Veritas Marine achieves full IJUBOA certification

Following a rigourous audit process executed by DNV, Veritas Marine were accredited as a full gold member of  the International Jack Up Barge Operators' Association (IJUBOA). 

IJUBOA was formed in 2008, with a mission to set, sustain and promote standards for the safe and effective operation of self-elevating platforms throughout the world. 

Within this overarching mission statement, it has three strategic goals: 

  • To promote a safe industry - safe for its people, for the environment and for society at large. 
  • To promote a learning industry - with the skilled and professional workforce essential for the safe and efficient operation of jack-up barges.
  • To promote a reputable industry - responsive to the needs of its customers and committed to continuous improvement.

"Here at Veritas Marine, we're especially pleased to be recognised by the definitive industry association as a safe and effective operator of self-elevating platforms to the very highest standard." remarked Veritas Marine's head of QHSE, Aizhan Karabassova, "Having joined IJUBOA early in 2022, we worked closely with them to seek improvements to our systems of work in order to align with their Code of Practice. Naturally, we will continue this process."
