What Esgian does

Esgian AS is a privately held Norwegian ocean-industry intelligence company headquartered in Oslo with additional offices in London, Dubai, Mexico City, and Houston. The company sells B2B subscription-based analytics platforms to enterprise customers in three vertical segments: offshore oil and gas rigs, Roll-on/Roll-off and Multi-Purpose (RoRo/MPP) shipping, and offshore wind. Its integrated product suite combines traditional market intelligence databases with the Greenpact ESG/emissions analytics family. The core technology is proprietary web-based and mobile platforms including Rig Analytics (rig database, demand analytics, tender database, dayrates, market planner), Rig Values (valuation and watchlist tools), Shipping Analytics (activity maps, port activity, operator/vessel comparison, voyage tracking, canals, Simulate Voyage), Wind Analytics (project tracking, lease rounds, installation vessels, contracts, floating technologies, Power Generation benchmarking), and WindMap GIS. Greenpact provides dedicated ESG and emissions modules — Greenpact Live / Greenpact Rigs Live for real-time rig monitoring, Greenpact Rigs, Greenpact Ships, and Greenpact Wind — addressing regulatory emissions reporting including EU ETS compliance for shipping.

The company monetizes via multi-year subscription license agreements with tiered feature access across its analytics and ESG platforms; pricing is not publicly disclosed. Go-to-market is sales-led enterprise direct, supported by content marketing (industry blog, market roundups, wind-focused newsletter) and industry events. Distribution is exclusively direct — no resellers or intermediaries. Customers include major offshore energy and wind developers and operators such as Equinor, RWE, Ørsted, TotalEnergies, Iberdrola, bp/JERA Nex, CIP, DNV, Norsk Hydro, and TenneT, as well as maritime brokers like Clarksons/R.S.Platou. Esgian acquired Bassoe Analytics (the offshore rig database and analysis application originally created by David Carter Shinn between 2017-2020), which forms the foundation of its rig intelligence product line. The company has no disclosed funding rounds and no disclosed revenue or headcount figures, suggesting either a bootstrapped growth profile or reliance on undisclosed private capital; key team members include Chairman Sebastian Brooke, board members Christian Bryn (Positron Capital CEO), Erland P. Bassoe (principal of Bassoe Offshore AS), Sverre H. Stange, and Magnus Nordenfelt, plus shipping team lead Gustav Heiberg and a small technical and commercial team.
