Marine Energy

The potential of marine energy is huge, but the challenges are considerable.

The marine energy industry presents a new set of technical and commercial challenges. Solving these requires both the thorough understanding of the complex design issues involved with marine energy systems and the ability to apply sound engineering principals. The professionals at MMI have been developing new technologies for the development of frontier ocean energy projects for over 30 years and continue to provide innovative solutions to this new industry.

MMI is widely recognized for contributions to the marine energy industry in the development of the analytical methods that are required to fully understand the complex nature of marine energy systems as subject to harsh marine environmental conditions. We specialize on the application of advanced analytical methods to achieve reliable, fit-for-purpose, marine energy systems. This experience includes the following relevant services:

• FEED, preliminary and detailed design
• Design certification and verification
• Owner’s  engineer representation

MMI specializes on the thorough and rigorous analysis of foundations, fixed and floating support structures used for offshore wave, tidal and current energy systems. Our team has demonstrated the ability to develop robust foundations and structural solutions based on a complete understanding of the effects of the marine environment and the ability to apply sound engineering principals to each unique project.
