"We were always given great service – good amount of keeping in touch, great staff to work with, and understanding when things didn’t go to plan. We were also given guidance on appropriate management of unusual resource consent conditions."

"Blue Planet Marine provided excellent service for our operation out of Darwin, Australia. The captain and crew were nothing but critical in the success of our mission. They were professional and always willing to help. Launching and recovering Wave Gliders are not easy tasks to accomplish, but the Blue Planet crew accepted and completed the challenge with ease. Safety was always a priority immediately followed by the desire to be successful. Blue Planet also proved invaluable when it came to handling the complex logistics of shipping items to and from Australia. All these factors will definitely ensure we use Blue Planet Marine again. Many thanks to the crew of the Phantom 4."

"The review [of effects of multibeam on cetaceans in the Marlborough Sounds] met my expectations. Blue Planet Marine took the initiative of phoning me to discuss how they intended to structure the review to meet our requirements. Their proposed outline was well-thought through and enabled a joint understanding to be quickly developed, thus expediting the project to meet a tight deadline. Service was excellent and product was fit for purpose. Blue Planet Marine delivered as promised, and responded well to feedback on the draft report. Blue Planet Marine will be one of the first companies I call on for proposals on marine mammal work."

"We were really impressed with the quality and professionalism of the Blue Planet Marine EAW Expansion Dredging - Marine Fauna Observer Training package and presentation. David’s knowledge and experience was evident throughout the presentation and when asked questions by the training participants. It has been a pleasure working with Blue Planet Marine and Macmahon will definitely recommend your services to similar construction projects in the Darwin region."

"For this project [deploying baited underwater videos to investigate the effects of ocean warming on coral trout], Phantom was probably the best possible vessel we could’ve used. The flexibility and size of the outer deck space is awesome ... Very professional and effective boat handling. Everyone on board went out of their way to ensure the project was delivered effectively and efficiently."

"Our recent charter was a huge success, and I believe a large part of that was due to your staff, and Infamis was a great boat for the research we performed. We were very pleased with their performance, help, and great company. I will definitely get in contact with your company again if we require another charter."

"OMV in New Zealand have been working with Blue Planet Marine (BPM) in the role of Cetacean Monitoring, during their many seismic surveys in the region for the last 8 years. During that time, BPM proven to be a service provider of the highest order, for their particular field of expertise and services. BPM add value to every marine seismic operation with their knowledge of Marine Mammals particular to New Zealand waters. This is done whilst working within the Department of Conservation’s Code of Conduct, balancing environmental responsibility with operational requirements, concluding with a mutually acceptable and compliant set of survey outcomes at the completion of all surveys they have been involved in with OMV New Zealand. OMV thoroughly recommend BPM to any operator looking to uphold environmental responsibilities and compliance and guidelines with BPM’s experienced offshore teams of MMO and PAMO, onboard seismic vessels. The team is augmented and value added, with the considerable backup, knowledge and experience of the shore-side management team."
