Our History
Founded in 2001 as GW Marine Consultants by Larry Williams and Chris Grubba, Vasse Group started by providing services for the oil and gas industry primarily in HSE Management and Vessel Auditing.
With a combined total of over 75 years experience, Larry and Chris nurtured Vasse Group from humble beginnings as GW Marine Consultants into a company with over 200 qualified professional consultants offering a broad range of services to more than 100 clients.
In 2023 GW Marine underwent a strategic rebranding to become Vasse Group, a move that signified its evolution beyond the confines of the oil and gas industry. Under the leadership of Samantha Robinson, Vasse Group has not only sustained its growth but also broadened its horizons. This expansion underscores the company's commitment to diversification and innovation in its operations.
