Hydrodynamic engineering
for your offshore success

We solve hydrodynamic challenges with advanced analysis to improve efficiency and sustainability.

Throughout our 250+ projects involving T&I activities we have build a wide experience base including nearly all conceivable installation activities.
 
Some projects require straightforward Hs and Tp limits where other projects can benefit significantly from a more sophisticated approach. Saving days or weeks of vessel utilization while maintaining safety margins is what T&I analysis should focus on.
Our team has contributed to over 80 mooring projects since 2013.
 
Mooring analysis requires not only a proper understanding of the physics involved but also of the statistical implications of how load cases are selected, analyzed and post-processed.

Often the flexibles are the Achilles heel of offshore installations, be it windfarms or O&G installations. The design of cable, riser or other flexibles should therefore be done in parallel with mooring analysis to determine surface excitation and seabed currents and scour effects to include all possible configurations during the lifetime. 

For complex fluid dynamics, we can use CFD to fulfill the needs of our clients. Depending on the project scale and wishes, we can conduct full CFD studies or simply define a subscope to support in areas where typical approaches become too simplistic and invalid.

As independent lender’s engineers we provide clear, impartial technical assessments that bridge gaps between stakeholders and help resolve insurance or contractual disputes. We verify whether designs, tests and operations align with industry practices and whether the documented approach truly reflects the complexity encountered in the field.

We have developed a mid-level simulation environment to include human factor into a real-time simulation environment. This may aid training of your team of validating T&I procedures.

Suction Bucket installation operability analysis​

The focus in this project was on accurately model the dynamics of the Suction Bucket Jacket (SBJ) during two critical installation phases: splash-zone crossing and landing onto the seabed. In addition, overall

Four-point mooring analysis for anchor retrieval​

This project comprised the analysis of an anchor-loss incident on the North Sea during a diving operation and the evaluation of the four point mooring procedure. ​ During this project there was a high

Ocean Cleanup’s Interceptor Mooring Analysis

Mocean has supported the Ocean Cleanup with mooring design and analysis for the interceptors in Dominican Republic, United States, Malaysia and more. Along with validation studies, design support of novel barriers and the

About us

Mocean Offshore is an engineering consultancy founded in 2013. Based in Rotterdam, we work across the full breadth of the offshore industry.

Our projects span everything from the deep sea to offshore structures above the waterline, and from rivers and coastal waters to mid-ocean environments.

Our clients operate in a wide range of offshore markets, including fixed and floating wind, marine innovations, oil and gas, and civil and dredging projects. While these markets differ, they share the need for reliable engineering, sound technical judgement, and practical solutions.

Our vacancies

At Mocean Offshore, we regularly welcome students in offshore and marine engineering. We value the opportunity to work with students, both to share our experience and to get to know the engineers of the future. Many students before you have already gained hands-on experience working on real offshore engineering challenges.

During your internship at Mocean, you will have the freedom to help shape your own assignment. You can apply your academic knowledge to internal engineering methods, develop programming tools or web-based applications, or contribute to research and validation of new numerical approaches. Depending on your focus, you will work closely with one or more experienced team members who will guide and support you where needed.

At Mocean, we support students during their Master’s graduation projects. We value the opportunity to guide students, both to share our experience and to get to know the engineers of the future. Many students before you have done this before you

During your graduation project at Mocean, you will work at the interface between academic research and practical engineering. You will be part of a fast-moving engineering consultancy while conducting your own research project, focused on real offshore challenges.

We provide supervision and guidance throughout the duration of your thesis, while following the general structure and requirements of your university. Together, we help define a relevant and meaningful topic, ideally based on real-world offshore engineering problems, while maintaining the academic rigor required for your research.

This gives you the opportunity to combine academic depth with practical engineering experience in an environment where both are valued. We typically supervise two graduation students at any given time.
