SSE – Svensk Sjöentreprenad AB is one of Sweden’s most complete providers of underwater operations and services for the shipping industry. Frog Marine Service, a well-known company already familiar to many in the industry, is now part of SSE.
SSE is one of the few diving companies in the country, if not the only one, that is approved by all leading classification societies (ABS, BV, ClassNK, DNV, RINA and Lloyd’s Register) to perform In-Water Surveys (IWS).
Hull cleaning and servicing for the shipping industry
In addition to certified IWS, the company offers hull cleaning, propeller polishing, servicing, and changing instruments, such as echo sounders and speed logs. SSE also provides the cleaning of sea chests, overboard valves, and scrubber outlets. Other services provided by the company include planned maintenance and emergency repairs directly alongside or at anchorage.
SSE operates the diving vessel Frog Cygnus, stationed in Gothenburg, enabling it to quickly cover the entire west coast and the Øresund area, including assignments in Denmark and Southern Norway. With Frog Cygnus, SSE can perform operations both alongside and at anchorage.
