The sustainability of development projects carried out in marine and coastal areas, and the protection of the various marine resources, requires accurate knowledge of the natural processes occurring in these areas and the understanding of the impact of human intervention.
To this end, Sarost Engineering provides professional consultancy services using the most recent technology developments in the following spheres:
Environmental Impact Assessment for projects with a dominant marine and coastal component (harbours, pipelines, seawater pumping plants, desalinization plants, coastal zone planning, offshore development, etc).
Environmental Strategic Studies for development projects to be achieved in coastal zones.
Marine Protected Area site study and management guidelines - Marine biodiversity assessment.
Current, waves and tides monitoring – Oceanographic and meteorological studies
Marine data collection and analysis (including remote sensing and aerial imagery)
Accurate Geographical positioning services.
Numerical modelling of hydrodynamical processes, sea waves, sediment transport, water quality, ecological processes, and coastal processes such as erosion or accretion
Study of water quality and the renewal of water (open-sea or lagoons) for environmental studies or for the benefit of economic operators, such as thalassotherapy centers, aquaculture farmers, sea farmers, cooling plants, etc.
Coastal protection and marine structures design and dimensioning.
Geographical Information database conception, development and maintenance.
