Marine Assurance, Inspection & Drone Services for Wind and Solar Projects

Midwest Marine Group provides integrated marine surveying, drone inspection and logistics support services to Australia's renewable energy sector. From the transport and discharge of wind turbine components to the inspection of operational wind farms and utility-scale solar installations, we help clients reduce risk, maintain compliance and improve operational efficiency.

Wind Turbine Logistics & Marine Assurance

The successful delivery of wind energy projects relies on careful planning, technical oversight and safe execution. Our experienced marine surveyors provide independent assurance throughout the transportation and discharge of oversized wind turbine components, working alongside project owners, EPC contractors, freight forwarders and port operators.

Our services include:

• Marine Warranty Surveys

• Vessel Condition & Suitability Surveys

• Cargo Condition Inspections

• Cargo Lashing & Sea Fastening Verification

• Port Discharge Supervision

• Heavy Lift Monitoring

• Project Documentation

• Compliance Verification

  
  

Route Surveys

Clear routes. Better planning. Reduced project risk.

We provide high-accuracy aerial route surveys to support the transport of oversized components including wind turbine blades, towers and nacelles.

Drone surveys combined with ground verification enable project teams to identify bridge clearances, overhead services, road geometry, turning constraints and potential hazards before mobilisation, reducing delays and supporting safe transport operations.

Wind Turbine Inspections

Using high-resolution optical and thermal sensors, we inspect wind turbine blades, towers and associated infrastructure to identify defects, damage and maintenance requirements while significantly reducing the need for rope access or elevated work platforms.

Solar Farm Inspections

Large-scale solar installations require fast, repeatable inspection methods capable of assessing thousands of panels efficiently.

Our drone inspection services include:

• Thermal hotspot detection

• Visual panel inspections

• Soiling and contamination assessments

• Mechanical damage identification

• Construction progress monitoring

• Asset condition reporting

• Operation and maintenance support

  
  

High-resolution imagery and thermal data enable faults to be identified early, improving energy production and reducing maintenance costs.

Why Midwest Marine Group?
