Marine Systems Design,
Analysis & Installation
Engineering solutions that thrive beneath the surface.
At Monodam Consulting, we design and engineer high-performance subsea systems for the world’s most demanding marine environments. From early-stage concept design to offshore installation, our focus is on simplification, efficiency, and cost-effective execution—without compromising quality or reliability.
With decades of hands-on experience in subsea engineering, commercial diving, pressure vessels, cable systems, and marine field operations, we bring both the technical expertise and practical insight to get your project from concept to completion—on time, on budget, and ready to perform.
Our Core Expertise
We specialize in design, analysis, and installation of subsea systems, offering full lifecycle support from the first concept sketch to offshore deployment.
End-to-End Project Development
We manage every phase of your project—from concept, proposal and bid, through design, manufacturing and installation—while maintaining alignment with cost, schedule, and performance goals.
Pressure Vessels
Design and fabrication for pressure assemblies rated to full ocean depth, including:
Thermal management and heat transfer analysis
Electronics and fiber optic component packaging
Seawater return power systems
Subsea Cable Terminations
We design and qualify subsea cable terminations that perform under the most extreme conditions, including:
Tensile load testing
Fiber optic element sealing
Operation up to 35 kVDC
Long-Life System Engineering
For deep-sea and long-term deployments, we account for:
Corrosion prevention and material compatibility
Aging and seal permeation
Environmental mitigation from surface to abyssal depths
Deployable & Recoverable Subsea Structures
Design and engineering for modular systems built for repeatable field deployment and recovery—with full field support available worldwide.
Testing & Qualification
We prepare and execute environmental, qualification, and functional test plans using the appropriate military and commercial standards:
MIL-STD-810
IEC
ABS criteria
Installation & Field Support
From load path analysis to sea fastening plans, we provide full installation engineering and field support for:
Mobilization and project execution
Offshore installation and recovery
Demobilization and post-operation assessment
Additional Capabilities
Our experience extends well beyond engineering analysis.
We bring practical, in-the-field knowledge across a broad range of marine and industrial disciplines:
Commercial diving • Hydraulic and electrical systems • Heavy equipment operation • Cable engine design and maintenance • Dry and underwater welding • Machining • Gear hobbing and shaping • Rigging • Explosives
This blend of technical and operational skill allows us to anticipate challenges, streamline solutions, and deliver results that perform under pressure.
Design Tools & Software
We utilize a combination of current and legacy software tools to support accurate design, analysis, and documentation across all project phases.
Active Tools:
Microsoft Office Suite (Excel, Word, Project, Visio, PowerPoint) • SolidWorks • SolidWorks Simulation • Mathcad
Previously Utilized Tools:
AutoCAD • SEADYN 2004 • OrcaFlex • ANSYS Mechanical & EM Suite • Algor/Autodesk Simulation
Global Reach, Local Expertise
Based in Santa Barbara County, California, and serving projects worldwide, Monodam Consulting combines local responsiveness with global experience. Whether it’s a subsea power connection in the Pacific Ocean or deep-ocean instrumentation in the southern Indian Ocean, we bring precision engineering, proven field experience, and results-driven execution.
