Buoyancy solutions for every project

Our buoyancy modules and systems are engineered to meet the needs of any project, whether subsea or surface, shallow or deep water, or using flexible or rigid cable. From floating wind buoyancy to more novel renewables buoyancy projects, our solutions draw on more than four decades of experience, delivering project success in some of the harshest offshore environments.

Our distributed buoyancy modules are fully accredited by Bureau Veritas to API 17L standards, and we have invested in developing the world’s most advanced buoyancy manufacturing plant.

This means high quality buoyancy modules and systems which offer low water absorption and compression throughout both deployment and service, helping your project achieve its full potential safely and cost-effectively.
