Inosys

What Inosys does

Inosys Ltd. is an independent UK-based consultancy founded in 2014 that provides specialist technical services to the offshore energy sector, including geophysics, geotechnics, foundation engineering, geohazard assessment, site survey project management, GIS and data management, and CCUS baselining and monitoring. The firm is headquartered in London (71-75 Shelton Street, Covent Garden) with additional operational offices in Bath, Aberdeen, and Norwich, and employs 18+ named specialists, including three directors with 30+ years of industry experience and a principal advisor with over 40 years of experience across consultancies, contractors, and operators.

The company's core digital product is Seekat, a proprietary cloud-based platform that combines content management, geospatial visualisation, weather data integration, progress tracking, and collaboration tools to enable remote project management, QC, and technical assurance for marine survey and construction operations. Seekat is positioned as an integrated offering alongside the consultancy services and includes features such as Carbon Impact Reporting to support client climate pledges.

Inosys generates revenue through three streams: professional consultancy services delivered across the offshore project lifecycle (pre-sanction through to operations), recurring subscription access to the Seekat SaaS platform, and managed digital solutions tied to Seekat configuration, remote oversight, and operational support. The firm targets enterprise offshore oil and gas operators, offshore renewables developers, CCUS project proponents, and survey/construction contractors, with named customers including BP, Chrysaor E&P, and New Age, and distribution supported by a strategic partnership with Atlas Professionals. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and is engaged through direct enterprise sales, demos, and multi-year contracts.

Broad incumbents

• Fugro: Global market leader in offshore geotechnical, geophysical, and survey services with deep-water and seabed-investigation capabilities. Competes directly with Inosys for offshore site characterisation, foundation engineering, and survey management mandates, but operates at vastly larger scale and with vessel fleets Inosys does not own.
• RPS Group (Tetra Tech): International consultancy with a substantial offshore energy practice covering geophysics, geotechnics, environment, and project management. Provides direct competition for offshore site investigation and EIA work, and has broader geographic reach than Inosys.
• Lloyd's Register (Energy): Energy advisory and assurance arm of Lloyd's Register (incorporating Senergy and other acquired consultancies) provides offshore subsurface, geohazard, and foundation engineering services alongside certification and assurance - directly overlapping with Inosys's full project lifecycle offering.
• ABL Group: Energy consulting and loss-adjustment firm with significant offshore renewables and oil & gas advisory work, including site characterisation, geohazard, and marine warranty surveying. Overlaps with Inosys's independent technical assurance positioning.
• Wood Group: Global engineering and consulting major with a substantial offshore energy services practice covering geoscience, subsea engineering, and asset integrity. Competes with Inosys on integrated offshore engineering projects, particularly those tied to UKCS operators.

Direct peers

• UTEC (Acteon Group): Offshore survey, positioning, and inspection services firm (now within Acteon) that delivers positioning QC, subsea inspection, and survey project management - the same workflows Seekat is built to support. Comparable in scope of services and offshore customer base, though larger and asset-heavy.
• Aspect Land & Hydrographic Surveys: Independent UK hydrographic and offshore survey consultancy delivering site investigation, geophysical survey, and project support to similar client profiles. Closest size-comparable UK independent peer to Inosys for offshore survey work.
• Cathie Associates: Independent offshore geoscience and geotechnical consultancy focused on foundation engineering and ground model development for offshore wind and oil & gas. Overlaps directly with Inosys's geophysical/geotechnical practice, particularly in offshore renewables foundation design where it is one of the leading independent specialists.

Regional players

• IKM Testing: Norway-based geotechnical, environmental, and subsea services firm operating in the North Sea with a comparable mix of geotechnical laboratory testing, site investigation, and offshore survey services. Regional competitor to Inosys in core North Sea tenders.

Emerging players

• 4Subsea: Norway-based digital platform provider for offshore wind and oil & gas operators covering structural health monitoring, sensor data, and digital twins. Comparable to Inosys in building digital products on top of subsurface/offshore engineering expertise, though focused on sensor-driven monitoring rather than survey project management.
