MARITIME Developments (MDL), Monitor Systems Scotland (MSS) and Deep Casing Tools (DCT) are among the recipients of the King’s Awards this year.
The royal awards, now in their 58th year, are among the most prestigious awards in the UK.
The three North-east businesses are part of the 13 across Scotland to win this year.
UK Government Scotland Minister Donald Cameron said they were all “outstanding in their field”.
He added “From creating hi-tech marine equipment to improving water conservation technology and delivering solutions to treat heart disease, their expertise cements Scotland’s status as a world leader in innovation.
“I want to congratulate all the winners and encourage firms across Scotland to enter next year’s awards to inspire our next generation of business pioneers.”

The recognition follows MDL achieving the Queen’s Award in the same category in 2022 for ‘Outstanding Continuous Growth’ – granted for six years of consistent growth in overseas trade.
Monitor Systems Scotland
MSS was established in Aberdeen nearly 30 years ago, specialising in monitoring and control technology for companies across sectors.
Brian Sinclair, the firm’s managing director, said: “Our ongoing commitment to providing high-quality… control and monitoring systems has not only garnered loyalty from our existing clients but also attracted new customers.
This prestigious award reinforces our reputation as a market leader in our sector.”
Deep Casing Tools
DCT develops and delivers unique, patented, innovative downhole technology solutions for the global oil and gas sector.
The Aberdeen-founded company recently changed hands after being acquired by Texas-based Drilling Tools Internationals in March.
Deloitte named DCT as one of the UK’s fastest growing tech companies in 2023.
