At Seaport Group, we support port authorities, terminal operators, municipalities and energy providers in the full lifecycle of OPS programme development and delivery. Our role extends far beyond the technical solution: we combine engineering, commercial, operational, environmental and organisational expertise to ensure safe, financially viable and future-ready implementation.
We manage End-to-End Project Delivery, the complete OPS journey, including:
- Business case development and total cost of ownership (TCO) evaluations
- Funding strategy and support in applying for government grants, subsidies and EU/CEF financing
- Permitting and regulatory compliance, including environmental and grid connection approvals
- Concept and detailed engineering design
- HAZID / HAZOP workshops and risk assessments
- Procurement strategy, tendering and contract negotiation
- System integration with existing substation, grid and terminal infrastructure
- Implementation management and site supervision
- Testing, commissioning, operational readiness and safety procedures
- Go-live coordination and ramp-up to commercial operations
- Final handover, training and operational documentation
We ensure that OPS is not just installed, but successfully operated:
- Development of work processes and SOPs for safe vessel connection and disconnection
- Training of port personnel, pilots and vessel crews
- Integration with TOS, EMS/SCADA and port energy management platforms
- Load planning, vessel call scheduling and grid stability coordination
- Lifecycle maintenance planning and performance monitoring frameworks
Our team understand both the technical challenges and the operational realities, from shore connection box placement and cable handling workflows to transformer sizing, frequency conversion and safety interlocking.
Whether the goal is compliance, emission reduction, energy optimisation or enhanced port competitiveness, Seaport Group provides the leadership and expertise to deliver safe, efficient and commercially sound OPS solutions, from first feasibility through to operational go-live.
