PROJECTS & CLIENTS
The presence of trained marine species observers is a regulatory requirement for many major offshore developments across Asia, Arabia, and Africa. The AMSO Course is the first regionally specialised marine species observer programme designed specifically for these regions, and it is increasingly recognised as the most suitable training option for environmental professionals working in offshore and coastal operations.
The programme has been developed through a collaboration between Nautica Environmental Associates, headquartered in the UAE, and One Ocean Environmental Services in Oman. Together, these organisations bring more than 30 years of regional experience, supported by leading specialists in marine species identification and mitigation.
A wide range of developers and operators across the region have selected the AMSO Course to train their teams, reflecting its scientific rigour, regional relevance, and alignment with regulatory requirements.
