As offshore wind expands into new frontiers, jack-up vessels face increasingly difficult working environments. Beyond the sandy soils of the North Sea, projects are now being built on dense tills, coral limestone, and even exposed bedrock. These hard seabeds are testing the limits of conventional ja
With 80 years of history, TAP Air Portugal is proud to be the leading airline connecting Europe, Africa, and the Americas. Operating more than 1,200 weekly flights to 90 destinations across 30 countries, TAP plays a vital role in linking key global trade and energy hubs. Recognising the specific ne
How smarter ROV deployment starts with smarter, real-time sea state measurement. The deployment of remotely operated vehicles (ROVs) is one of the most critical and riskiest activities in offshore operations. These subsea systems are essential for tasks such as inspections, repairs and construction
By Sahil Kochhar, Commercial Manager, Miros Monitoring, understanding and responding to vessel motion is fundamental for maintaining safety, efficiency and uptime in any offshore operation, whether that be in offshore energy or marine construction. Over many decades we have seen what can happen if t
The global expansion of offshore wind energy continues unabated. New wind farms are being built at ever greater distances from the coast and under increasingly demanding conditions. As these projects grow, so do the requirements for construction and operation, as well as the need for temporary, flex
