Assystem was chosen to undertake environmental screening and appraisal of multiple clusters of islands located along the west coast of Saudi Arabia 👇 Our mission was to characterise islands and submerged reefs by identifying environmental and social sensitivities, and to inform development visioning for the area. Further appraisal studies were set to outline environmental, ecological, and social constraints and opportunities. This proactive approach would ensure the preservation of sensitive areas. Here's how our expert team drove this project forward: 🌟 Developing screening criteria: We established rigorous screening criteria focused on key environmental and social features to ensure thorough and accurate appraisals. 🛰️ Utilizing advanced remote sensing: Remote sensing was used to assess data over large areas and provide a comprehensive view of the islands’ physical and biological environment. 🚁 Conducting on-site surveys: Our team performed site walkovers and drone surveys to gain a comprehensive understanding of each site. By identifying potential impacts early, our expertise significantly minimised project risks, paving the way for a development that harmonised with the natural environment.

Designing infrastructure for a Pacific island nation isn't easy in the best of times. But in a changing climate, it can be very difficult to predict what your buildings will need to withstand. In Vanuatu, a new web-based tool is helping civil engineers - and more - to do their work. #infrastructure #climatechange #vanuatu

I find Henk Smith's article in Bunkerspot fascinating — there are so many changes on the horizon in how we design, install or decommission any deep sea infrastructure. While I know the urge is to default to thinking of this solely as oil and gas infrastructure (which is currently the focus of these conversations), the reality is also an anticipated surge in the coming decades in the decommissioning of offshore wind farms that may have reached end-of-life. There are cross-industry forums sharing lessons learned while planning next steps, and I am very keen to see how this process continues — particularly as we discuss at what scale artificial reefing can continue, how we continue to mitigate impact to the marine environment, and the varied impacts on maritime's commercial and environmental ecosystems. For anyone interested in reading around this topic (as I often tend to be), the University of Plymouth's Decommissioning – Relative Effects of Alternative Management Strategies (DREAMS) project ran from 2020-2023 and looked specifically at this topic: https://lnkd.in/e6tNQjy2 #Decommissioning #EnergyInfrastructure #OffshoreWind #Offshore #MarineConservation
"Removal of equipment from the sea floor is complex and expensive and requires that anyone undertaking these projects have established experience in handling highly challenging projects," highlights Marine Masters Director of Global Operations, Henk Smith. Writing in the latest issue of Bunkerspot, he says, "This understanding, alongside the ability to produce high-quality surveys, is a necessity – as is having attributes like agility, adaptability, and creativity." 🔎 What are his key recommendations to to ensure decommissioning projects go smoothly? 📋 🔹Avoiding one-size-fits-all project planning: The specifics of the region are a key factor in determining the project planning and approach — from environmental factors to be considered, access to the region, the availability of equipment and trained personnel, through to ensuring local regulatory compliance. 🌏 🔹 Understanding regional influence on project planning: regional or local economic factors may also influence decisions over the decommissioning project. For example, a higher price of steel (which can be recycled) can drive greater demand for removal, trumping any alternative choices. In a market where the steel price is low, there would be the opposite effect. ⚓ 🔹Existing activity and local collaboration increases efficiency: If undertaking a project in a region with ongoing oil and gas activities, the availability, skill and knowledge of local vendors, suppliers and subcontractors will tend to be higher and there will be improved access to necessary equipment. So in circumstances where Heavy Lift Vessels are not available, it may be an option to use smaller lifting equipment to remove topsides and jackets — and this would also be ideal to source locally, speeding up project timelines and reducing costs and emissions. 🦈 🔹A holistic approach is essential: Any decision around how or what to decommission – or not to – needs to be based on a carefully considered, holistic approach that considers the impact of everything from mobilising personnel and heavy equipment to the existing sea life in the region to assess impact on the marine environment. It is key to assess when leaving parts of platforms in place as artificial reefs can benefit marine life. This can also help nurture local economies — such as our work in the Persian Gulf, where a platform was preserved as an artificial reef, allowing it to be repurposed as a dive site. This helped boost tourism in the region while protecting marine ecosystems. 📢 Find more vital insights in the full article, available freely via ship.energy at https://lnkd.in/dt52MuH #Decommissioning #OffshoreEnergy #OIlAndGas #Renewables #WindPower

INTERNATIONALISATION IS NOT POSSIBLE WITHOUT PRESENCE AND SUPPORT. Solutions by TeMa can be found in the specifications of major intervention works. However, it is due to the company’s widespread presence around the world that its partnerships have grown over the last two decades in various parts of the globe, also with many small and medium-sized construction and soil management companies. Membranes for protecting waterproofing in foundation works and roofing, geonets and geogrids for soil stabilisation and containment, drainage geocomposites for the proper management of run-off water: all these products are readily available on all continents, thanks to our widespread distribution network. Moreover, using digital technologies TeMa technicians can now assist and support planners and operators in all situations. In this sense, internationalisation is the result of a corporate approach to research and the technological development of innovative products, materials and processes, relying on assistance and integrity for environmental compatibility. The ‘Geo Solutions’ and ‘Building Solutions’ divisions of the TeMa Group offer cutting-edge technical performance and expertise: we emphasise these aspects as this internationalisation model has been one of the factors behind the company's reliability since it began. #tema #internationalism #presence #support #partnerships #assistance #EnvironmentalCompatibility
