Services

From the yard to the balance sheet.

Three practices covering the life of a floating unit: construction, delivery and installation, and the vessel and systems that keep it on station and producing. Each is led by a partner who has done the work, not only reviewed it.

Production systems and newbuild

Topsides, production systems and owner’s representation while the unit is being built.

Topsides and production systems readiness

Commissioning readiness, FAT and SIT oversight, and owner’s engineering support for production systems from FEED through first gas.

Owner’s site team and building supervision

Owner’s site teams and building supervision in the yard, reporting to the owner, from steel cutting to sail-away.

Equipment FAT / CAT and vendor surveillance

Witnessing, procedure review and vendor surveillance for marine and production equipment at the supplier’s works, before it reaches the yard.

Installation and marine operations

Planning, warranty and on-site representation for tow, hook-up and connection.

Pre-installation, tow, hook-up and connection assurance

Assurance from yard departure through tow, mooring hook-up and riser connection for FPSO, FSO, FLNG and FSRU units.

Marine project management and marine operations assurance

Marine project management and operations assurance: procedures, HAZID, warranty liaison and a senior representative on the day.

Client representatives and secondments

Owner’s representatives in the yard, on board and on the vessel management team, and senior marine people seconded into the client’s project team.

Marine engineering and analysis

Vessel capability comparisons, mooring and station-keeping calculations, and risk management and mitigation across the project.

Marine systems, inspection and offtake

The vessel and the systems that keep a unit on station and producing, and the inspection and governance that sit over them.

Marine systems, offloading and turret operations

Turret and STL disconnection and reconnection, offloading and offtake systems, and maintenance stops on units still in production.

Vessel inspection, vetting and audit programmes

IMCA eCMID inspection, vetting and acceptance procedures, audit programmes and independent audit against IMCA, class and company standards.

Management systems and governing documentation

Governing documentation, management systems and marine operations manuals for owners and operators of floating units and offshore fleets.

Vessel suitability and condition surveys

Pre-charter, condition and suitability surveys, and DP trials witnessing for charterers and operators.

Dynamic positioning: FMEA, trials, capability analysis and audits

DP FMEA, proving and annual trials, capability analysis and DP audits for offshore and shuttle vessels.

Asset valuation, condition and pre-purchase inspection

Valuations, condition assessment and pre-purchase inspection of floating units and offshore vessels, for sale and purchase, refinancing and lender due diligence.

Sectors

The same practices, applied where the asset is.

Offshore wind

Field development for floating and fixed wind, from installation through hook-up to operation, with the marine assets that build and serve it.

Contact

If you have a unit in build, on tow or about to connect, we would like to hear about it.

A partner will reply, usually within one working day.
