Our strengths lie in translating (perceived) needs into practical solutions for the maritime and inland waterway sectors.

Sarnia Maritime b.v. is flexible and result-oriented. We provide a wide-range of services ranging from small-scale legal advice on issues concerning maritime law and data protection through to fully integrated projects determining the full set of requirements for implementation. This is always built on the sound principle of what is to be done can be done (legally, organisationally, operationally and technically).

Our clientbase ranges from port and coastal authorities through to private operators......any organisation faced with legislative, organisational, functional and/or operational requirements for the safe, secure, efficient and environmentally responsible operation of the port and movement of vessels and their cargo through the port, in coastal waters and on inland waterways.

Sarnia Maritime b.v. has extensive experience in both international and pan-European integrated solutions in the field of maritime information management, vessel traffic services (and management), emergency response and environmental protection. We provide both specialist services in these fields as well as utilising our extensive experience in providing project management services,
