Integrated Project Services
From concept to execution, engineered for first time success
Creating tailored back-deck packages of technical performance, integration, reliability, efficiency and safety.
MDL provides fully integrated engineering and project services that underpin safe and efficient operations – on and offshore. From early-stage feasibility and FEED studies through to vessel mobilisation, execution and in-situ support, our multidisciplinary team helps de-risk complex scopes and optimise delivery.
With deep operational insight and in-house design capability, we don’t just engineer equipment - we engineer confidence in your project’s success.
Early-stage project planning
By engaging our in-house engineering team from at the earliest stages of project development, we help you define the most effective execution methodology, by challenging assumptions, assessing alternatives and maximising deployment of readily available assets.
- Concept development and FEED studies for offshore equipment and operations
- Feasibility studies of known and alternative handling methodologies
- Integrated planning for offshore procedures and work packs
- Engineering input to optimise safety, schedules and cost efficiency
MDL engineers hold chartered accreditation with IMechE, IET and IMarEST, bringing proven technical authority backed by decades of offshore delivery experience across energy sectors.
Design draughting and visualisations
MDL’s in-house technical capability spans mechanical, structural, hydraulic and electrical disciplines, enabling efficient project planning as well as fully tailored solutions for lifting, pulling and deployment operations.

Risk, assurance and operational readiness
Our experienced Project Managers help project teams reduce risk and maximise operational success through structured assurance, planning and documentation.
- Stakeholder and interface management
- Technical risk evaluations (FMECA, PUWER, LOLER)
- HAZID, HAZOP and HIRA facilitation
- Detailed commissioning, testing and operating procedures
- Lift plans, method statements and work instructions
- Operations and maintenance manuals and task plans
Our team also provides in-situ maintenance support and troubleshooting to keep operations moving when conditions change offshore.
