DTN APAC offers a comprehensive suite of services, refined through years of collaboration with the marine, ports and offshore industries, to optimise the safety and efficiency of your operations.
We work with you to understand your intrinsic operational challenges and customise high-precision forecasting, metocean and aviation services to your exact location and operational scope.
When working offshore, our solutions can underpin planning and safe execution for offshore oil and gas enterprises and wind farms. Our data can support your exploration, development, rig moving, shuttle tanker operations, and production and decommissioning phases. Whether your crews are on-site, being transported to shore, or diving to perform maintenance, we deliver tailored weather risk briefings to ensure you choose the optimal time to proceed.
DTN APAC’s trusted nowcasting and forecasting system, OpticastTM, allows you to rapidly respond to changing conditions offshore, en route and in port. We take your port topography and berth orientation into account, ensuring site-specific forecasts. For offshore oil & gas, wind farms, ports and logistics, we have your weather situational awareness covered, no matter where you are. We deliver real-time severe weather and lightning alerts to your team via your integrated dashboard: Portzone, and our Weatherguard app.
DTN APAC’s Total Lightning Network (TLN) ensures you avoid hours of unnecessary downtime by providing the most accurate technology in lightning detection and alerting. Safeguard your teams and assets with lighting and Dangerous Thunderstorm Alerts (DTAs), customised to your existing parameters and delivered in real-time across all devices in your network. You gain full spatial awareness of developing severe weather systems, allowing you to plan ahead and, where needed, execute your shutdown and evacuation procedures.
With extreme conditions slowing production and affecting infrastructure, safety and transport, trust us to deliver Australia’s most precise weather data and tailored insight, giving you decisive confidence when it’s most needed.
We have developed Portzone – an interface that is tailored to your site, operations and weather risk, and is currently operational at most major ports and offshore facilities in Australia. Portzone delivers relevant and verified data in easily visualised formats, with tools and insights enabling you to make critical decisions quickly. High definition and easily viewed on phone, tablet, PC and large screen.
Gain both the awareness of local wind systems that are undetectable on general forecasting models, and the accuracy of our Total Lighting Network detection to <200m, with integrated alerting. Optimise your response to incoming severe weather.
Validated forecasting and real-time metocean data improve your marine safety and minimise unnecessary downtime. Gain the best visibility of any conditions that could potentially impact your supply chain and operations.
Our operational forecasts give you the foresight to plan effectively. Our data supports the safe and efficient execution of exploration, development, rig moving, production and decommissioning phases of your offshore oil and gas or wind project.
We thrive on challenge, next-generation science and customised service, and are dedicated to helping you stay ahead of the game.
Metocean Services
Our metocean services provide you with:
We customise to your exact requirements, and provide operation forecast summaries based on your marine infrastructure, both on and offshore.
Weatherguard App
Mobile access to areas of interest, forecasts, operational windows and alerting for severe weather and lightning is delivered via our Weatherguard App. Custom built to ensure the effective and timely communication of key data across your team, whether they are on-site, at sea or on shore.
We work to bring you complete situational awareness – offshore, in transit and in the air – so you can mitigate risk and maximise your productivity and profits.
The National Electricity Market (NEM) is bracing for one of its most active wind weeks of the year, with two powerful cold fronts bringing wind gusts which could force wind farms into cutouts at times. The first vigorous cold front is set to sweep across southeastern Australia late this week into early next, with another powerful front following closely behind during the middle of […]
NSW hydropower generation is climbing again after a soft beginning to the year, ahead of the biggest snowfall event this season with the potential for more than half a metre of snow forecast from late this week. A strong cold front with a freezing airmass is set to sweep across southeastern Australia late this week into next week, likely […]
The tropical Pacific Ocean has rapidly warmed to a ‘very strong’ El Niño threshold for the first time in more than 10 years, a milestone that puts extreme heat, water stress and higher energy demand squarely on the radar for businesses across Australia and Southeast Asia in the upcoming seasons. El Niño was declared by […]
One of Australia’s main climate drivers, the Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD), may be shifting into a phase that could impact the energy market, fire and emergency services, and mining operators in the late winter and spring. What is the Indian Ocean Dipole? Australia’s weather is shaped by the seasons – cooler winters, warmer summers, and […]
