Expertise
We are experts in how water moves, behaves and influences communities and industries.
We create smart, resilient solutions for the natural and built environments to help the world understand the changing influence and impact of water.
Our work supports infrastructure developers and operators, research bodies, governing authorities and decision makers at all levels with the innovative solutions they need, built on our experience, data insights and research.
We help our clients to understand the impacts of natural and human induced change on the freshwater environment. We’ll interpret the consequences of these impacts to provide solutions, tools and advice, tailored to deliver sustainable, resilient solutions.
With more than 75 years’ international experience in the design and construction of structures in the marine environment, we use our exceptional expertise to develop, optimise and deliver cost-effective and sustainable breakwater solutions for our clients.
We use our sector-specific expertise to assess and manage the environmental impacts of developments in the marine environment.
Our expertise in flood resilience is helping to protect people, communities, and infrastructure across the world. We help clients to develop resilient approaches for all phases of flooding: before, during and after.
Estuaries are complex environments. Effective solutions and strategies for estuaries must consider the key natural processes and balance engineering and commercial needs with economic, social and environmental factors. We apply our expertise to deliver sustainable solutions for our clients worldwide.
The relentless movement of the seas shifts sands and muds constantly. Coasts erode, sandbanks move, channels fill in and scour develops around structures. Designing and managing assets in this complex environment requires the sort of expert advice that our scientists and engineers provide. We have world-renowned expertise in coastal morphology and sedimentation; our innovative team develops new approaches and techniques that we use to benefit our clients.
River morphology must be considered when designing and assessing the impacts of intervention such as the management or planning of infrastructure. We provide solutions to a wide range of river morphology issues.
