Our unique observational buoys capture real-time weather and marine data for offshore, coastal and inshore environments. Using this vital information, will help you select the best site and monitor weather conditions throughout your operation, to maximise efficiency, safety and return on investment.

We offer an unrivalled end-to-end service which can be tailored to your specific requirements.

  • A choice of three buoys with moorings (for sale or hire).
  • A package of choices for delivery, build and installation - which can be tailored to your precise requirements.
  • Servicing and maintenance options.
  • 24/7 customer support.
  • Technical support.
  • Visualisation of data, via Safesee™, our online weather system.
  • Verification of forecast service.

Through the placement of these multi-sensor buoys, planners can understand the likely weather and marine conditions expected offshore. The advantage of having this information first-hand is it can help when making key decisions about where to site assets or help give an indication of the expected prolonged effect of weather.

Each buoy is built with different resilience, for different water depths and environments, so can be more closely matched to your operations. Our buoys can also have oceanographic and customer sensors to measure current and salinity.They provide hourly observations for a range of weather parameters.
