Antwerp Underwater Solutions was founded in 2005. Shortly afterwards AUS became a part of a holding including several ship repair companies. The current structure and order books urged the need for a new manager to maintain and improve the level of service.<\/p>\n

We strongly believe we found the right \u00a0man for the job in Hans Cuylits, his career speaks for itself\u2026.\"img_3040\"<\/p>\n

He started his career as diver in a diving company where the main focus was on shipping. After 2 years he made a leap to the offshore industry. Here his drive and accuracy did not go unnoticed and pretty soon he was project superintendent for one of the major players in the offshore industry.<\/p>\n

In 2012 Hans and his wife had the courage to follow their dream and start a three year \u00a0journey around the world with their two kids.<\/p>\n

They returned in June 2016 and shortly afterwards \u00a0we welcomed Hans \u00a0with open arms in our team. We consider him to be a great asset not only for Antwerp Underwater Solutions but also for our customers.<\/p>\n
