Identifying project specific risks and challenges early in a project is the difference between unexpected surprises and an efficient, cost effective outcome.  Scott Marine Consultants provide independent engineering support across every stage of a project, including phases that are often overlooked.  From early project feasibility and concept development through to technical diligence, offshore engineering and installation planning, to weather downtime, vessel assessments, ou

January 2026 marked a milestone for our industry: the world’s first 20MW offshore wind turbine was successfully installed off the coast of Fujian, China. This landmark accomplishment celebrates the collaboration between China Three Gorges (CTG) and Goldwind, signalling a new era of wind energy.  To put its scale into perspective: 🔶 Its 147‑m blades sweep an area equivalent to 10 football pitches. 🔶 The 174‑m hub height is taller than 35 stacked double‑deckers. 🔶 A single r

Offshore wind farm construction schedules can fail for one simple reason: teams rely on P50 without understanding what it hides. You can build the most realistic model in the world: 🔶 Detailed activity sequence, 🔶 Weather windows & Safe-to-Safe windows, 🔶 Multiple weather datasets 🔶 Vessel interactions 🔶 Port constraints  …and still give your leadership team the ‘wrong’ answer. Imagine they ask ➡ “When should we charter the vessel to finish before year‑end?” You run the
