Specialist Earth Observation

Offshore Energy

Reduce the risk in your permitting timeline with environmental evidence your regulators and financiers can rely on. We give developers and their consultancies a continuous, satellite based record of the conditions a regulator will ask about.

Offshore wind permitting in the North Sea moves slowly, and an incomplete or indefensible environmental baseline is one of the most common reasons it moves slower still. Marmoris replaces that uncertainty with a continuous, satellite based evidence record that regulators, financiers, and your own project team can rely on.

Built on evidence

Built specifically for offshore wind permitting and monitoring

Marmoris is a specialist Earth Observation team that works alongside the consultancies and developers who already run your environmental programme. We do not replace your EIA consultancy. We give it a stronger, continuous evidence base to work from.

  • Methodology developed with ITC and the University of Twente, the University of Bologna, and Wageningen University.
  • Grounded in the BACI framework that regulators and financiers already trust.
  • Exploring how satellite indicators and eDNA sampling can capture biodiversity effects standard surveys miss, through our IBIS project.

Most environmental data providers specialise in one part of this picture, satellite monitoring or biological sampling, but rarely both. Marmoris exists specifically in that gap.

What we do

Four ways we reduce risk in your timeline

See construction impact before anyone has to ask

Continuous water quality and turbidity tracking through construction and operation, so you can show a regulator how conditions changed, and how quickly they recovered.

Catch risk before it costs you

Early screening for harmful algal blooms and other biological risk in and around your project zone, so a surprise does not become a stop work order.

Cut permitting delays

Multi year baseline characterisation and BACI framework EIA support, with a complete satellite data package delivered in 3 to 4 weeks.

Open a new revenue angle, not just a cost

Site feasibility modelling for co locating mussel or seaweed cultivation within a wind farm zone, turning a monitoring requirement into a potential return.

How it works

A clear path from first call to ongoing monitoring

1

Scoping call

We learn your site, your regulator, and where your timeline is most exposed. No obligation.

2

Data collection plan

We define the indicators, resolution, and revisit frequency your case actually needs.

3

Analysis and delivery

You receive a defensible, audit ready data package built on the BACI framework.

4

Ongoing monitoring

We keep the evidence record current through construction and into operation.

Questions developers ask

Frequently asked

Does this replace our EIA consultancy? +
No. It plugs into one. We work alongside the consultancy and developer team that already runs your environmental programme, giving them a stronger, continuous evidence base rather than a one off survey snapshot.
What do you need from us to start? +
The project area, your permitting timeline, the regulator you are reporting to, and any existing baseline data you hold. From there we build the data collection plan in the scoping stage.
How is data confidentiality handled? +
Project data and deliverables are treated as confidential and shared only with the people you name. We can work within your existing data handling and non disclosure requirements.
What timeline should we expect? +
A complete satellite EIA data package is typically delivered in 3 to 4 weeks. Multi year baseline characterisation and ongoing monitoring run on a schedule we agree with you during scoping.
What geographic scope can you cover? +
We are active in the North Sea and Dutch waters today and can extend to other regions where suitable satellite coverage exists. Tell us your site and we will confirm what is feasible.

Take the uncertainty out of your environmental baseline
