Our Expertise, Your Advantage
We provide a wide range of services designed to ensure the safe, efficient, and cost-effective operation of vessels and offshore assets under our management. Our experienced professionals bring deep industry knowledge and technical expertise to every project, delivering reliable solutions you can depend on.
Technical Management
Ship Management Services
At Bricks Mursten Mattoni Limited, our technical management services are integral to ensuring our fleet operates at peak performance while maintaining the highest standards of safety, reliability, and cost-effectiveness.
Planned and condition-based maintenance:
We combine rigorous scheduled maintenance with real-time condition monitoring to ensure our vessels remain in optimal operational condition. Utilising the advanced MAMS SDSD SaaS for our planned maintenance system, we implement a systematic schedule of inspections, servicing, and component replacements designed to address wear and tear preemptively. In parallel, our condition-based maintenance leverages cutting-edge monitoring systems and performance data to identify emerging issues early. This dual approach allows us to minimise unexpected breakdowns and extend the lifespan of our vessels, ensuring both safety and efficiency in our operations.
Operational Management
Ship Management Services
Our operational management services are designed to ensure seamless, safe, and cost-effective vessel operations. We focus on four critical areas:
Voyage planning and execution:
Our experienced operations team meticulously develops comprehensive voyage plans considering weather conditions, sea state, fuel consumption, regulatory requirements, and optimal routing. We create detailed itineraries to maximise efficiency, minimise transit time, and reduce operational costs. During execution, our team monitors vessel performance and external conditions, making dynamic adjustments to ensure that every journey is executed safely and punctually.
OffshoreServices
Our offshore vessel management services are designed to support the demanding requirements of offshore operations, ensuring our specialised vessels operate at peak performance while meeting stringent safety and regulatory standards. Our services span three core areas:
Management of Offshore Support Vessels (OSVs), AHTS Vessels, and Specialized Vessels:
We provide comprehensive oversight of our diverse fleet of offshore support vessels, including OSVs, anchor handling tug supply (AHTS) vessels, and other specialised craft, as the Fast Intervention vessels (FSIV). Our experienced team manages every aspect—from routine maintenance and technical oversight to ensuring adherence to international and local maritime regulations. Each vessel has state-of-the-art navigation and safety systems, and we employ rigorous technical management practices to ensure optimal performance. Our commitment to safety and operational excellence means that every vessel in our fleet is maintained to the highest standards, enabling them to effectively support offshore supply missions, anchor handling operations, and critical security escort tasks.
Maritime Industry
Bricks has been in the frontline of maritime security (MARSEC), occupying an indelible space in the security spot market for 13 years and counting. Our expertise in maritime security in Nigeria and the entire Gulf of Guinea has earned us an eminent membership position with the Maritime Security Providers Association of Nigeria (MASPAN), with our Managing Director serving as the President of the Association, who also served as the General Secretary of the Association in the past. We have conducted/coordinated about 300 escort task operations as well as about 500 Armed Guard Mobilization Our strength is drawn from our verified Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) and regulatory compliance which have earned us a good name with the Nigerian Navy thus making the mobilization of Armed Men onboard our vessels and onboard our clients’ vessels easy and timely.
We have also conducted security risk assessments and planning of various port facilities and offshore terminals on behalf of the Designated Authority (NIMASA), and in the process significantly improved the security architecture and processes of these facilities. Bricks, then Britannic Maritime Limited, was part of the committee that drafted the NN MOU in the year 2013 and year 2024.

We excel in managing complex offshore equipment installation and maintenance projects that are critical to the success of our clients’ operations. Our approach is comprehensive and detail-oriented, ensuring every project phase is executed precisely and carefully.
Our experienced project managers oversee the entire project lifecycle—from initial design and engineering to the final stages of installation and commissioning. We meticulously plan every aspect, coordinating with specialised engineers, contractors, and suppliers to ensure that each component is seamlessly integrated. This structured process ensures that installations are completed on time and within budget and guarantees that all equipment functions optimally once in service.
Safety and environmental stewardship are at the forefront of our operations. We work closely with clients, regulatory bodies, and industry experts to ensure that every project complies with the strictest safety protocols and environmental standards. Our proactive risk assessments and robust quality control measures minimise potential hazards, providing a secure and efficient working environment throughout the project.
