INFOMAR Ltd. provide the customer in Russia and CIS with wide range of the  oceanography and meteorology instruments and sensors as well as multiparameters monitoring systems for research and operational applications for the ports, harbors, off-shore and oceans.  This activity is supported by the dealer’s agreements with leading manufacturers – AANDERAA Data Instruments (Norway), SonTek (USA), General Acoustics, Nautilus Marine Service, Sea&Sun, Hydrobios (Germany), GILL (UK), StarOddi (Iceland).

The MetOcean survey of the off-shore projects is based upon the analysis of multi-year data series, archived synoptic charts, hydrodynamic and statistical modeling. All this information is used for determination of the relevant meteorological and oceanographic parameters including extreme values of atmospheric parameters as well as sea level, waves, currents possible once in a given time period for off-shore areas of interest and in accordance with the type of construction to be designed and developed.

An optimal combination of well-known Western and Russian methods and models are used. The INFOMAR develops and uses different models of marine processes including:

  • A version of the well-known WAM wind wave model;
  • A specialized 3D model of marine circulation with free surface, which can simulate a wide range of currents including their vertical structure, storm surges, tides;
  • An oil spill transformation model.

These state-of-the-art models satisfy on all requirements of the active regulations and is thoroughly verified on base of field investigations.
