Marine engineering outfit Cathie and Global Maritime have joined forces to offer a consultancy for offshore wind jack-up vessels.
The companies are together providing integrated leg penetration assessment (LPA) and site specific assessment (SSA) services for jack-up operations.
Cathie and Global Maritime first began delivering integrated analysis and reporting for jack-up operations, as part of a “one team” approach to vessel operators and developers, over three years ago.
Since then over 1500 individual jack-up locations have now been analysed by the combined team.
Cathie business development director Gareth Ellery said: “We like to play to our strengths and so reacting to client demands through key consultancy partnerships to address broader scopes is key to our business.
“By collaborating with Global Maritime, we have been able to collectively win significant market share in this service area.
“Our two teams are very well aligned both in terms of business culture and absolute commitment to technical innovation. It’s a pleasure to work with Global Maritime and to witness the success in this relationship.”
Global Maritime CEO Jonny Logan added: “Global Maritime have a long and proud history as a leading global provider of engineering services for the operation of jack-up vessels, of all types.
“Having pioneered the development of state of the art tools and methods for site specific assessments that offer our clients both class-leading quality and high efficiency, it was a natural step to form a partnership with Cathie; whose expertise and innovative approach encourages further refinement of combined services in this area.
“The two teams work extremely well together and provide complimentary skills and experience in delivering a high quality and integrated product.”
