Optimize Operations with Marine Weather Data.

Welcome to your one-stop resource for essential global marine weather data. With access to lightning data, severe weather alerts, tropical cyclones, wave, swell, and tidal information, surface ocean currents, sea surface temperature, and more, Flex is essential for maritime business applications.

Offshore Platforms and Operations

Storms on the sea create hazardous conditions for offshore platforms, installations, and construction, delaying buildouts or scheduled maintenance. One strike of lightning can have catastrophic consequences for LNG operations or WTIV and helicopter transportation. Our maritime weather datasets include detailed current and forecast information on waves, swell, current, and more. Protect and optimize offshore operations further by pairing these datasets with severe alerts, lightning, or wind data - critical for planning an efficient wind turbine installation.
