Both OMM’s independence and its unique approach to providing flexible solutions for projects are crucial to its on-going success. Under its contract with Fluor, OMM will provide a full range of installation services, from front end pre-engineering support, burial trials and installation of the inter-array cables to delivery of the final reporting using in-house survey capabilities.
