Recognising the importance of the commercial fishing community as a crucial stakeholder group, GoBe offers tailored support through a wide range of services designed for clients developing new projects or managing existing assets in the marine environment. By collaborating closely with project teams, GoBe ensures that key issues related to commercial fisheries are identified and addressed, fostering solutions through a cooperative approach.
GoBe’s highly experienced team of consultants brings expertise in marine fisheries, fish, shellfish, and benthic ecology, ensuring the highest level of knowledge and professionalism. The team specialises in analysing and presenting complex fisheries and ecological data to support evidence-based scientific advice. This advice informs sustainable solutions that address impact assessment, mitigation, and monitoring requirements of large-scale infrastructure projects in coastal, estuarine, and offshore environments.
Effective stakeholder engagement is at the heart of GoBe’s approach, fostering collaboration, trust, and shared understanding among fishers, regulatory agencies, environmental groups, and other stakeholders. This approach balances the sustainability of future fisheries and coastal communities with ambitions to achieve net-zero.
GoBe’s specialist commercial fisheries services cover a variety of projects, including offshore wind farms (both new developments and decommissioning projects), coastal defence initiatives, ports and harbours redevelopment and repurposing, coastal water utility infrastructure upgrades and builds, aggregate extraction projects, interconnector cable projects, and tidal energy projects.
