Your Trusted Engineering Partner for Subsea Solutions
Established in 2003, RiserTec has built a reputation as a leading engineering solutions provider specialising in subsea systems and renewable energy projects. Our ISO 9001-certified quality management system, maintained for over 12 years, underscores our commitment to excellence in engineering analysis and design. With a dedicated focus on riser, mooring, and pipeline systems, we deliver technically advanced solutions supported by proprietary software tools like RT VIV. Our expertise extends to offshore wind turbine support structures, deep-sea mining systems, and bespoke training programs for industry professionals. Acquired by global energy solutions provider Oil States Industries in 2019, we combine independent engineering excellence with enhanced commercial resources.Our engineers have pioneered innovative solutions including polyurethane spar attachments for current turbines and dynamic bend stiffeners for subsea applications. Through rigorous testing protocols and custom-built test frames, we ensure component reliability under extreme conditions. Our project portfolio spans 4,500m deep-sea riser systems, mooring solutions for FPSOs, and fatigue analysis for offshore structures. With operations in Aberdeen and Houston, we serve major operators across oil & gas and renewable energy sectors. Our continuous R&D investment maintains our position at the forefront of subsea engineering innovation.

Services
Engineering Analysis
Our engineering analysis services specialise in subsea systems, offering finite element analysis, fatigue assessment, and structural integrity evaluations. We provide critical insights for riser systems, mooring structures, and offshore installations. Our ISO 9001-certified processes ensure accurate predictions of component behaviour under operational loads.
Renewable Energy
We deliver engineering solutions for renewable energy projects, including offshore wind turbine support structures and current turbine mooring systems. Our expertise covers design optimisation, fatigue analysis, and installation engineering for sustainable energy infrastructure in challenging marine environments.
Software Development
Our proprietary software suite includes RT VIV for vortex-induced vibration analysis and tools for pipeline trenching and stress checks. These custom solutions enhance engineering efficiency and accuracy in riser system design and fatigue performance assessment for subsea applications.
Testing Services
We conduct comprehensive testing for subsea components using custom-built test frames. Our facilities validate dynamic bend stiffeners, VIV suppression strakes, and riser components under simulated operational conditions to ensure reliability in offshore environments.
Training Courses
Our training programs cover riser engineering fundamentals and advanced analysis techniques. Designed for non-competitive clients, these courses transfer specialist knowledge in subsea systems design, fatigue analysis, and installation engineering to enhance industry capabilities.
