On the XOCEAN team
” We contracted XOCEAN for a route-survey campaign involving geophysical, geotechnical and environmental data acquisition, both onshore and offshore, in water depths of up to 100m. XOCEAN provided us with a turnkey solution to deliver these scopes, ensuring a seamless transition between data acquisition and assessment across the different disciplines, which helped us achieve an accelerated project timeline.

Your Data Delivery Partner
Every offshore project is different. The challenge isn’t collecting ocean data, it’s delivering the right data, at the right time, while keeping projects moving.
XOCEAN takes responsibility for the complete ocean data programme, managing delivery from planning through to final outputs. Our flexible operating model allows us to deploy the right combination of capabilities for each project, helping clients accelerate delivery, adapt to changing conditions and reduce programme risk.

Defining the gold standard
for ocean data delivery
At XOCEAN, we strive to set the gold standard for ocean data delivery by providing high quality data and analytics to businesses in the ocean economy.
Meet XOCEAN
Major energy and industrial corporations, as well as government agencies, are all seeking reliable, high-quality ocean data for various applications, from developing offshore wind farms to ensuring marine safety. Traditionally, mapping the ocean floor and collecting marine data requires a ship with a large crew working for extended periods at sea. When a customer needs data, it can be several months before a traditional supplier has availability and costs are uncontrolled. James Ives, XOCEAN CEO, recognized these challenges and envisioned a more efficient and safer method. Thus, XOCEAN was created in 2017 in Ireland.
