Marine Geotechnics 

Close cooperation with WorleyParsons’ structural, pipelines, environmental and coastal & marine engineers allows the delivery of the most complex offshore and nearshore projects from one multidisciplinary team.

Offshore

Services

• Geotechnical and geophysical offshore site investigations
• Offshore foundation design for monotonic and cyclic loading
• Anchoring systems
•  Driven, bored, or drilled and grouted pile foundations including axial and lateral loading assessments and t-z and p-y analyses
• Advanced geological assessments including sedimentology, petrography and stratigraphy
• Pipeline route assessment
  
• Pile drivability assessment and testing
• Conductor installation
• Spudcan-pile interaction analysis
• Suction caisson design and installation
• Skirted mudmats for sea floor structures
• Shallow GBS foundations
• Numerical analysis

We are also experienced in executing marine investigations using barge, jackup, diver operated and remote seabed site investigation tools.

Nearshore

Nearshore developments such as mine-to-market solutions, pipeline shore crossings, port developments or coastal protection projects require specialist geotechnical and geological services.

• Karstic and coastal assessments
• Three dimensional geological and geotechnical modelling
• Seawall foundation design
• Dredging assessments
• Seabed slope stability assessments
• Pipeline shore crossings
• Pipeline scour and protection measures
• Trenching and horizontal directional drilling advice
• Jetty, wharf and bridge foundation design
• Sheetpile wall design and installation
• Structural anchoring systems
• Pile drivability assessment and testing
