Service line 06
Marine engineering and analysis
Calculations and comparisons that support a decision: which vessel, which mooring, which weather window, which risk to accept. Written to be used by the people doing the work.
What we deliver
Capability comparisons
Side-by-side comparison of candidate vessels or spreads for a defined operation: DP capability, bollard pull, deck space, crane reach, endurance and cost.
Mooring and station-keeping calculations
Analysis of tow, temporary and installation mooring arrangements. Line loads, excursions and holding capacity for the design environment and the operational limits.
Risk management and mitigation
Risk assessment, mitigation and management across marine operations and the wider project — not limited to the marine scope. Identification, evaluation and practical mitigation for individual operations or whole campaigns, recorded in a form the project can maintain.
Independent review
Third-party review of contractor analysis and procedures where the owner wants a second opinion before approval.
When to involve us
Whenever a marine decision needs a number behind it. We are often engaged alongside our other services, but the analysis work stands on its own for clients who have the marine team and need the calculation.
Typical engagement: a defined study with a written report, usually within two to four weeks.
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.
