O’BRIEN’S also provides Qualified Individual (QI) and Spill Management Team (SMT) services to the shipping industry representing over 5,000 ships operating in U.S. territorial seas. Emergency calls received by O’BRIEN’S clients worldwide are managed from the Slidell Command Post and EOC.

The Slidell Command Post and EOC is staffed 24-hours-a-day, 365-days-per-year and is equipped with the latest technology including new proprietary response management software, web-based access to real-time response information from anywhere in the world, a digital phone system, enhanced computer server system and an uninterruptible power supply. Ben Benson, Vice President of Response Services at The O’BRIEN’S Group commented, “We have an unwavering commitment to provide the highest level of service to our clients and to fully comply with the regulatory requirements of our state and federal agency partners.
