Metocean Services encompass the study of meteorological and oceanographic (metocean) parameters critical for marine operations, coastal engineering, and offshore infrastructure planning. By integrating atmospheric and oceanic data, these services support a wide range of applications—from marine survey and offshore construction to environmental and chemical oceanography research.
With advancements in Earth observation technologies, Metocean Services now include high-resolution satellite data and remote sensing tools to monitor ocean dynamics. These services provide accurate, real-time information on ocean surface conditions such as waves, winds, currents, and tides, enabling safer and more efficient decision-making for maritime stakeholders.
Traditional methods such as ship-based surveys, buoys, and current meters are enhanced through satellite data integration, offering expansive and continuous coverage across oceanic regions. This is especially beneficial for conducting high-quality marine surveys and supporting chemical oceanography studies that depend on understanding physical ocean processes.
