Our expertise covers various aspects of subsea systems, ensuring optimal performance and safety under dynamic environmental conditions. By leveraging industry-leading software and advanced modelling techniques, we assess the behaviour, stability, and long-term durability of cables, risers, umbilicals, and other critical infrastructure. Our services provide crucial insights to mitigate risks and enhance the reliability of your offshore assets.
Global Analysis
Global Analysis using OrcaFlex, a leading software for dynamic analysis of offshore systems. This service focuses on evaluating the overall behaviour of subsea systems, such as cables, risers, and umbilicals, under environmental loads. Global Analysis in OrcaFlex enables assessment of the motion, stresses, and fatigue life of these systems over time, considering environmental factors like waves, currents, and vessel motions.

Dynamic FEED Analysis
Dynamic Feed Analysis using OrcaFlex, a leading software for simulating the dynamic behavior of offshore systems such as cables, risers, and umbilicals.
This service focuses on analysing the real-time movements and interactions of subsea systems as they are deployed, particularly during installation or while in operation under dynamic environmental forces like waves, currents, and vessel motions.
Electromagnetic Analysis
Electromagnetic Analysis using COMSOL Multiphysics, typically in 2D functionality, however, detailed 3D studies are available. This service is essential in understanding the maximum magnetic flux density of a current carrying component, and can be expanded to current carrying components in proximity to assess electromagnetic interference and subsequent required separation distances as a result.
Stability Analysis
Stability Analysis using OrcaFlex and DNV approved stability assessment tools, for assessing the stability of subsea systems such as cables, risers, and umbilicals. Stability analysis evaluates how these systems behave under various operational conditions, helping to identify potential risks such as instability, excessive bending, or torsion that could compromise performance or safety.
Thermal Analysis
Thermal Analysis using COMSOL Multiphysics, a powerful simulation software that allows for detailed modelling of heat transfer and thermal behaviour in complex systems. This service is essential for understanding how temperature variations affect subsea equipment, cables, risers, and other offshore assets, especially in extreme environments. Using COMSOL, we simulate both conductive and convective heat transfer, as well as the impact of thermal gradients on materials and system performance.
