What we deliver

Marine & offshore services

Six focused offerings spanning the offshore lifecycle — from independent assurance through live campaign execution.

Marine Assurance

Independent technical and operational reviews supporting vessel suitability, warranty and acquisition decisions.

De-risks investment and protects project integrity.

DP Operations

Bridge-level DP guidance for close-proximity work, station-keeping and high-stakes offshore execution.

Safer, more confident manoeuvres in critical windows.

Vessel Conversion

Concept-to-execution support for refit, upgrade and reconfiguration of DP-class tonnage.

Faster, cleaner conversions with fewer surprises.

Walk-to-Work

Relative-positioning discipline, gangway-interface assurance and transfer-window optimisation.

Maximised transfer time, minimised stand-by hours.

Mobilization

Yard-floor oversight of equipment integration, sea-fastening and certification chains before sail-away.

Ready-to-work tonnage that sails on schedule.

Offshore Execution

On-site representation across bridge, project and client teams when conditions tighten.

A trusted decision-maker on deck, day and night.

Capability Matrix

The disciplines behind every service

Each engagement draws on the same core toolkit — applied to DP-class vessels, conversion yards and live offshore campaigns.

Selected Projects

Case Studies

Representative offshore engagements — distilled into challenge, solution and outcome.

Vessel Conversion

PSV → Geotechnical Drilling Vessel

DP-2Class Retained
Challenge
A DP-class platform supply vessel required reconfiguration into a geotechnical drilling platform — tight schedule, complex deck integration and unproven layout assumptions.
Solution
Conceptual conversion support: DP operational review, deck layout optimization, drilling spread integration and offshore readiness across yard and operations interfaces.
Result
Conversion concept validated as operationally viable, with a clear execution pathway and de-risked deck arrangement ready for detailed engineering.
DP & W2W Operations

Multi-Vessel DP & W2W Campaign

ZeroDP Incidents
Challenge
An offshore client needed independent DP and walk-to-work guidance for a multi-vessel campaign involving close-proximity work, FPSO interfaces and demanding weather windows.
Solution
Embedded advisory across planning and execution — operational procedures review, relative positioning guidance, gangway-interface coordination and on-site offshore support.
Result
Campaign delivered with consistent positioning performance, high W2W transfer availability and improved coordination between bridge, project and client teams.
Offshore Mobilization

Offshore Spread Mobilization

On-timeSail-away
Challenge
A complex offshore spread had to be integrated, sea-fastened and certified across a compressed yard window before a critical sail-away date.
Solution
On-site mobilization lead — equipment integration oversight, sea-fastening reviews, interface coordination with crew, surveyors and client representatives.
Result
Vessel mobilized and certified on schedule, with the offshore spread ready for immediate campaign execution upon arrival in field.

Client Words

What operators say

Direct feedback from marine, project and operations leads across recent offshore engagements.

Aquitor Marine's independent DP guidance kept our multi-vessel campaign on schedule through genuinely demanding weather windows. Their bridge presence was calm, technically sharp, and immediately integrated with our team.

Henrik Sørensen

Marine Superintendent

Leading European Wind Developer

Reliable advisory exactly when it mattered most. Their on-site presence during W2W transfers gave the offshore crew complete confidence in every transfer window we encountered.

About Aquitor Marine

Offshore expertise, delivered with precision.

Aquitor Marine is a boutique partner to vessel operators, project teams and EPC contractors — built around the people who actually run offshore work.

We sit between the yard, the bridge and the client desk, translating engineering intent into procedures, positioning plans and safe transfer windows.

The result is a smaller, sharper interface: fewer hand-offs, faster decisions and campaigns that close out on schedule.
