Services

Fugro OCEANOR is very experienced in the acquisition and analysis of meteorological and oceanographic data worldwide since the early 1970s. This means that we can offer a range of services in these areas, including projects designed to collect accurate long or short term data, often in real-time. Subsequent analysis of the data and provision of the results to the end user can also be performed. 


 Wave Climate Data

Fugro OCEANOR offer the whole range of wave climate products based on probably the largest and most accurate global wave and wind data base. The database comprises
a) Global satellite data (1986-)
b) Global and regional wave model data
c) Measured wave data from many countries worldwide

These data are also offered as products through the World Wave Atlas and WorldWaves software packages. However, for users that prefer to get the results without doing the analysis themselves, it is possible to buy this as a consultancy service from Fugro OCEANOR. 

Products range from a low price multiple-use global subscription service to PC software atlases (for any country or region worldwide) to the highest quality offshore directional wave time series (for any project site worldwide) to the most comprehensive wave atlas ever released (EUROWAVES), also available and tailor made worldwide as WORLDWAVES. Further information about the wave climate products may be found here.


World Wave Atlas (WWA) is the collective name for a series of comprehensive high resolution interactive wind and wave atlases capable of providing accurate wind and wave climate statistics for any country or region worldwide. An offer for wave data for a particular location or an atlas for a given area, country or region will be given if you send us an e-mail specifying the area or location of interest. Further information about WWA may be found here.

WorldWaves is a high quality offshore database, bathymetric data, raytracing and SWAN wave models, advanced statistical analysis package for offshore and nearshore analyses. The package is a complete wave analysis and modelling package for any country or region worldwide. Further information about WorldWaves may be found here.

Metocean measurements

The acquisition of meteorological and oceanographic (metocean) data of high quality and integrity is the first step in the development of any offshore or coastal engineering project. The services provided cover the entire range of metocean parameters, these include:

  • Physical oceanographic measurements, such as currents, waves, water levels, and seawater temperature and conductivity
  • Meteorological measurements, such as wind speed and direction, atmospheric pressure, air temperature, humidity, precipitation (rain and snow), cloud height, solar radiation, snow thickness and icing

More information about our metocean measurement services may be found here.
