Methodologies for the derivation of environmental statistics for ocean engineering are well-established within MetOcean Solutions. The range of project experience in this area has led to an in-depth knowledge of the regional ocean process, and a thorough understanding of the metocean data requirements and analysis techniques required for coastal, port and offshore developments.

• Metocean data collection
• Seabed surveys (sub-bottom profiling, side scan sonar and bathymetry)
• Targeted data analyses
• Numerical modeling of waves, currents and sediment transport
• Wave hindcasting and forecasting studies
• Tidal modeling and prediction
• Oil-spill fate oil-spill response and produced water discharge modeling
• Pipeline and cable seabed survey and stability analysis
• FPSO motions, including full-scale model tests and data analysis
• Thermal and other water column properties
• Wind field analysis
• Marine growth on platforms and structures
• Benthic ecological surveys and impact assessments
• Research into the ecology and oceanography on the continental shelf break
• Development of metocean design criteria
• Ambient and extreme metocean statistics for operations and construction
