1. Reduce Opex:
   Get costs down. But how? Find fuel efficiency and lower taxes through efficiency technology and emissions management. Our advanced optimisation and modelling environment validates vendors’ claims from bulbous bows to WAPS and all the complex combos in between.

2. Shrewd Investment:
   New vessel designs, retrofits and conversions powered by advanced simulation technology. Get the specialist vessel you need not the one they want to sell. Assess shipyard designs on actual routes not theoretical spec sheets.

3. Realise FOAK Concepts:
   ‘First of a kind’ ideas are exacting. They test creativity, persistence and realism. Our record has proud realities and occasional failures. But we burn brightly for the challenge. All maritime sectors. Multi-disciplinary is a strength. Recent activities range from a 24m USV codenamed ‘Mako’ through autonomous LARS to a floating grandstand/vessel maintenance hub.

4. Find Answers:
   You might be in a regulatory bind. You might need technical diligence before a deal. You might just need discreet research. We can help you out of the tightest spot. Think technical advice, expert witness and due diligence. When its urgent and important we’re there.
