Offering a unique blend of offshore operational experience mixed with precision engineering & analysis

We are Subject Matter Experts in mooring design, from recreational craft to the next generation of Floating Offshore Wind turbines.

• Permanent mooring design – for floating wind, tidal and wave energy devices
• Complete Floating Offshore Wind system modelling
• Temporary mooring design – for work boats and barges
• Quasi-static or time domain analysis
• Third party verification/review of mooring designs
• Mooring component design: tensioners, connectors, anchors
• Export cable integration to moorings and analysis
• Fatigue assessment

We have developed a consistent and robust process for designing project seafastenings.  We deliver a wide range of services covering design, engineering, documentation, and onsite supervision of mobilisation works.

• Experience of all common ship structures
• Transportation analysis and operational loads from construction activities
• Provision of class approval documentation
• Marine warranty survey documentation packs
• On site quality records and as built documentation
• Full engineering reporting from basis of design to detailed design and strength summary

We have capability to address a wide range of challenges when it comes to man’s presence on the seas.

• Hydrostatic analysis – from inputs to further modelling to full stability booklet
• Diffraction analysis of floating structures to assess wave loads and ship motion
• Vessel motion assessments
• Ship structure design
• Modification designs and refit specifications
• Towing analysis
• Vessel capability and suitability assessments

We use advanced engineering analysis to further our understanding of the marine environment and to aid design of optimised solutions.

• Marine operations – Simulation of key stages of marine operations to determine suitable weather limits
• Structural analysis – finite element methods to assess loading effects in structures
• Metocean/Oceanographic
• Weather risk – Assessment of the impact of weather risk on planned operations
• 2D and 3D CAD – Full capability to produce fabrication drawings, layout, rigging arrangements, charts.

A comprehensive range of technical skills to support any form of marine construction activity.

• Lift planning, dynamic offshore lift analysis, design of bespoke lifting tooling
• Analysis to determine weather limits for offshore operations
• Mooring design and specification of layouts
• Operational Storyboarding (2D and 3D)
• Vessel/Asset selection
• Risk reduction processes – HIRA, HAZID, HAZOP, FMEA

As recognised industry experts we provide focussed, independent, and impartial advice to clients in technology development, project development and funding and investment fields.

• Appraisal of residual risk in planned offshore activities
• Review of project or technology development documentation
• Technical review prior to investment decision making

We regularly undertake scaled model testing campaigns for our customers, our skills include:

• Design and build of scaled models
• Specification of test objectives and schedules
• Scaling of real sea, site, and technology parameters to suit facility
• Knowledge and experience working in UK leading facilities

We design, cost, plan and execute marine operations.

All staff hold valid ENG1, BOSIET (or STCW95) and first aid qualifications for working offshore.

We cover a range of offshore responsibilities including:

• Offshore Construction Management
• Subsea Works Management
• Project Engineer
• Mobilisation Management
• Lift - Appointed Person
• Deck Supervisor
