Ocean Science Consulting (OSC) Ltd., established in 2004, is a global leader in providing Static Acoustic Monitoring Systems (SAMS) tailored for marine industries. With a focus on enhancing the understanding of underwater noise and its impact on marine life, OSC offers innovative solutions such as the advanced C-POD and T-POD monitoring systems. These moored hydrophones are essential for detecting and analyzing underwater sounds, enabling compliance with international marine regulations that demand thorough assessments of anthropogenic noise on marine mammals.

OSC's expertise extends beyond monitoring; they actively contribute to environmental impact assessments and marine bioacoustics research. Their groundbreaking studies have revealed vital insights, such as the use of offshore platforms by harbour porpoises as feeding stations. By integrating SAMS into projects like the SAMBAH initiative, OSC is instrumental in preserving marine biodiversity and facilitating sustainable offshore development. With offices in the UK, Greece, and New Zealand, OSC remains committed to advancing marine science and promoting the health of our oceans through its comprehensive services and innovative technologies.
