The Group operates from offices in London, Falmouth, Singapore, Shanghai, Hong Kong and Rotterdam.

Solis Marine senior partner John Simpson said: “The Solis Group has worked with Butterworth Marine on a number of cases in the past and we are delighted to now welcome them as a member of our Alliance Network. In particular, we look forward to working with Iain as we look to increase our local presence in and around the Humber region and the North-East of England.

“We also look forward to Butterworth Marine working with the Solis Group further afield, especially in supporting the growth of our marine engineering and offshore renewables services and providing Solis Marine with additional salvage and wreck removal expertise.”

Based in the UK, Butterworth Marine provides technical services with a particular focus on legal disputes and litigation, casualty investigations, technical appraisals, salvage services and surveys.

Solis Marine has previously assisted both Butterworth Marine and its clients in adding to its strong marine engineering focus.

“With the growth in Solis’s marine engineering capability, Butterworth Marine can support and enhance the services offered. The time is right to formalise this long-standing successful relationship which will certainly benefit both companies and their respective established client base.”
