COASTAL AND PORT MANAGEMENT
Rapidly developing coastal activity, for which we provide impact assessments and monitoring services.
- Impact assessment of development projects on agitation, current, sediment
- Impact assessment of development works on sediment dispersion and turbidity
- Metocean forecasts and monitoring impacts during installation and operational phases
