The training center

Made up of a hydraulic power unit, production swivel with local pressurization unit and an electrical swivel, the system is connected to a small CCR (Central Control Room). The components have been fully refurbished for training purposes.

The first objective is to train newcomers in the IMR team (Imodco Inspection Maintenance & Repair After Sales team) on its core business activity in
order to be recognized as specialists. The training is also available to IMR specialists in order to stay on top of their game. The second objective is to train SBM employees, using our numerous years of IMR offshore experience and in light of lessons learnt. In the future, ultimately Imodco plan to propose specific training courses for external clients.

This training center makes us more dynamic and productive on the field and the efficiency of our teams is above all an advantage for our clients.

The training center is a cornerstone of Imodco’s strategic plan and will enable us to develop our IMR team competencies to accompany market growth
