What Peritus does

Peritus International is a UK-headquartered, private subsea engineering consultancy founded in 2010 and operating as a subsidiary within the Sapura Group. The firm provides specialised engineering services for offshore energy operators across the project lifecycle, spanning concept evaluation, FEED, detailed design, procurement support, construction supervision, commissioning, and operational support. Its seven core service lines — Subsea Pipelines, Subsea Cables, Risers, Project Management, Integrity Management, Subsea Systems, and Field Development — cover the full subsea engineering stack, with the firm explicitly extending this capability set to oil and gas, offshore wind, hydrogen, and carbon capture and storage (CCS) applications. Peritus is one of the few consultancies with documented ultra-deepwater experience (a 3,500 m water-depth record) and a cumulative pipeline project track record of 11,492 km.

The firm differentiates through a combination of patented intellectual property (J-Low for offshore wind cable installation and HALO for deepwater pipeline installation), early-mover CCS expertise dating to 2014, and a senior team with 20-43 years of subsea experience recruited from INTECSEA, R J Brown, Saipem, Petrofac, Wood, and IntecSEA. Peritus generates revenue via fee-for-service engineering contracts, typically awarded through competitive tendering, direct client engagement, or consortium participation (e.g., embedded in Petrofac's Woking office for the Aramis CO2 trunkline FEED). It operates a regional engineering centre model with headquarters in Woking covering Europe, Africa, and the Middle East, and a Kuala Lumpur office led by a dedicated General Manager covering Asia Pacific; nearly 95% of turnover derives from overseas projects. Named enterprise customers include TotalEnergies, Shell, EBN, Gasunie, EDF, BP, Vattenfall, Van Oord, and South Asia Gas Enterprises (SAGE), with certifications including ISO 9001 and the Achilles Global Energy Gold Certificate.

Core offering

Peritus International provides subsea system engineering services — including pipelines, risers, structures, cables, control systems, and umbilical design — to the offshore energy industry across oil and gas, offshore wind, marine energy, hydrogen, and carbon capture and storage (CCS). The firm delivers end-to-end project support from concept evaluation and FEED through detailed design, construction, commissioning, and operational integrity management, augmented by two patented innovations (J-Low for offshore wind cable connections and HALO for deepwater pipeline installation).

Product overview

Peritus International is an engineering consulting firm providing subsea system engineering services to the offshore energy industry. The company operates as a services-based organization rather than a software product company. Its core offerings include seven integrated service lines: Subsea Pipelines, Subsea Cables, Risers, Project Management, Integrity Management, Subsea Systems, and Field Development. These services collectively cover all phases of subsea project development from concept evaluation through FEED, detailed engineering, construction, commissioning, and operational support. The company also holds two patents for specialized technologies: J-Low (for offshore wind turbine cable installation) and HALO (for deepwater pipeline and subsea structure installation). Notable project experience includes the Aramis CO2 pipeline design (200km trunkline for carbon capture) and the MEIDP Ultra Deepwater Pipeline (1200km from Middle East to India at 3500m depth).
