Arctic Directory: Reich announces new UIC Arctic Response Services

Richard Reich, general manager of UMIAQ, a subsidiary of UIC Professional Services, said April 22 it has formed a new company — UIC Arctic Response Services LLC — to pursue opportunities in oil spill prevention, training, preparedness and response services along the Arctic coastlines including, onshore, nearshore, and offshore areas of the North Slope Borough, Chukchi, and Beaufort seas of Alaska.

UMIAQ, the majority owner, and OCS Ventures LLC have teamed to create UIC Arctic Response Services LLC. Together, the two organizations have greater reach and access to the requisite expertise, experience, and resources that will effectively position the new company for future work.

The intent and objective of UIC ARS is to ensure a fully integrated, proactive, and programmatic approach to work, which is customer focused, flexible, and designed to consistently deliver in a way that achieves the highest possible level of stakeholder confidence. Instilling stakeholder confidence is only achieved with a comprehensive oil spill prevention and response program that effectively meets the needs of those living within the region, federal and state regulators, as well as those of the exploration and production companies. UIC ARS has the ability to provide that level of stakeholder confidence.

Additionally, UIC ARS brings training and employment opportunities to UIC shareholders, their descendants and spouses, and other local residents throughout the region.
