TRUST BUILT THROUGH PRACTICAL DELIVERY

VSEL works closely with clients, partners and specialist teams to deliver practical engineering solutions. Here are some of their experiences of working with us.

EOM Offshore has worked successfully with Andrew on marine technical projects and have found him to be a practical, experienced marine engineer having a solid grasp of marine engineering, marine market sectors, marine operations, and wave energy conversion. Andrew is a pleasant, clear communicator and team player

CEO 
EOM Offshore and Safe-Moor

I’ve worked with Andy at a number of organisations over two decades and have always found him to be an extremely creative and technically gifted engineer, who leads his projects effectively, is very personable, communicates clearly and is very easy to work with. Highly recommended

Managing Director,
Orion Product Development Ltd

I’ve worked with Andy in several roles over nearly a quarter of a century where he was initially a customer, as a long-term collaborator seeking to make marine energy a reality and more recently as a technical expert providing valuable practical engineering insight into projects.
He brings a refreshing take on challenges based on sound understanding and deep (literally) experience of the marine environment.

If picking my team for a project he would be the first one I’d ask for.

Managing Director (2005-2024) European Marine Energy Centre.

I had the pleasure to work with Andy both in marine renewables and equipment design. He has a deep technical knowledge, a creative approach to problem solving, and is highly responsive to project challenges. I would have no hesitation to work with him again

Nick Cresswell CEng MIMechE WhSch
Principal Engineer,
Schottel Marine Technologies Ltd

I have had the pleasure of working with Andy since my time at the European Manager Energy Centre (EMEC), where I brought him onboard as a technical associate. I have always valued the perspective he brings- a rare combination of highly qualified engineering expertise, hands-on offshore experience, and professional diving. He knows the challenges and risk in all applications of offshore marine energy.
Since my move to the United States, I have continued to draw on his expertise, particularly in technical reviews and work with U.S. developers exploring innovative anchoring and mooring solutions. I trust his engineering judgement, appreciate his practical and collaborative approach and genuinely value having him as a colleague and technical sounding board.
