"Our strategy in the long term - the president of Harkand has explained, Tom Ehret - is to make of Harkand a total operating head physician totally focused on inspections, repairs, maintenances and constructions to read. This market is showing positive perspectives of increase in the long term, but it is lacking in the presence of a true specialized total player in a position to supplying adequate services in every region. The arrival of VMS, with its complementary in deep waters and the consolidated experience presence in the United States, will strengthen our position and will feed our ambition to become a leader of the total market".
