Marine resources

Mapping marine resources and identifying suitable sites for resource exploitation are crucial for responsible ocean utilization. We conduct comprehensive mapping and analysis to gain valuable insights into resource distribution and abundance. This helps institutions, stakeholders, and researchers make informed decisions for sustainable utilization. Our objective is to collect, organize, and store marine resource data in a comprehensive database for easy access and utilization.

Design, testing and technical developments

The design, testing, and technical development of offshore wind floating platforms depend on strong foundations and reliable mooring systems. Engineers address challenges in aero-elasticity, dynamics, and material selection for corrosion and fatigue resistance. Integration of mechanical and electric components ensures efficient power generation and transmission. Construction methods are optimized for reliability and cost-effectiveness. Considerations for decommissioning, operation, maintenance, and infrastructure development are crucial for long-term success. Adhering to design standards and obtaining qualification and certification ensures safety and performance of innovative energy solutions.
