The team can advise on issues relating to the design, construction, operation and suitability of marine assets, and can undertake physical inspection of vessels or audit of shipyards for due diligence purposes.
Technological Innovation
The decarbonisation of the shipping industry will drive technical innovation, from measures that improve fuel efficiency during the energy transition through to the end goal of net-zero fuels. Our technical team continuously monitor and assess developments in vessel and engine design, efficiency-enhancing technologies that can be retrofitted to existing assets, and the technical and commercial feasibility of potential future fuels.
