Company Background
Worldwide Marine Technology Ltd was formed as a joint venture between a marine controls technology company and a technical publications company. The key staff of both had previously worked on LNGC, tanker and offshore operating manuals and saw an upcoming need for a high quality marine technical publication company.
With the surge in LNGC projects for gas transportation vessels, WMT secured a first contract to produce a full set of operating & maintenance documents for 5 LNGCs newbuilding at Chantiers de l'Atlantique for Malaysia's Petronas. Building on the success of this project and the growing need for ship-owners to have high quality operating manuals, contracts for most of the LNGC and many tanker newbuilds were awarded to WMT.
With a growing order book and international reputation at the end of the '90s, WMT expanded its team with experienced marine specialists to cover the different disciplines within ship operations. The technical and publication team were integrated into one main office near Chester.
In 2003 requests were made by the Offshore industry to apply the WMT user-friendly style to the many documents routinely needed. Projects for FPSO's, Semi-Submersibles and Drilling Rigs have now become a significant part of business activity.
The company has a core staff of around 30 people supported by external authors, specialists and illustrators.
WMT continues to develop the best team of in-house marine and publications specialists with the right experience and skill sets for producing the highest quality manuals.
