Marine Research & Technical Services Ltd provides specialist scientific research, data and technical support to marine, environmental and research-led organisations. We help clients strengthen their research — from project design and methodology through to data analysis, scientific reporting and publication.

Our expertise spans research design, survey methodology, data management, statistical analysis, QA/QC, scientific writing and research programme evaluation. We support projects at different stages, providing specialist scientific capacity where additional technical knowledge, analysis or research support is required.

Our work can be delivered remotely or alongside client teams where appropriate, combining rigorous analysis with an understanding of how research methods, data collection and monitoring programmes operate in practice.
