Carbon‑removal interception

Protect your coastline — and generate verified climate impact.

Pelara Marine intercepts sargassum offshore, provides real‑time ocean intelligence, and converts captured biomass into stable carbon. One operation that protects your shoreline and delivers measurable environmental benefit.

Who we protect

Three coastlines, three sets of stakes.

Sargassum impacts each client differently. We build your interception plan and reporting around what your coastline actually stands to lose — and what you stand to gain.

Cruise lines

A destination call is a single, unrepeatable window. Thousands of guests come ashore in a few hours, and a fouled beach becomes satisfaction scores, lost excursion revenue, and itinerary changes that cost real money.

For cruise lines

Municipalities

Public beaches carry the tourism economy, and emergency cleanup budgets are unpredictable by nature. Offshore interception replaces reactive spending with a planned, forecastable operation.

Hotels & resorts

Guests booked the photograph. A brown tideline shows up in reviews the same afternoon — and in your rates the following season — while watersports, weddings, and beachfront dining stop earning.

How it works

An engineered system,
not an emergency response.

Four capabilities working together, continuously, through the entire arrival season.

01 — Detect

Autonomous drone sweeps

Daily aerial verification of shoreline conditions, water clarity, and drift patterns — giving complete visibility into what is approaching your coast.

02 — Forecast

Pelara Sentinel

Our ocean‑intelligence platform combines drone, vessel, satellite, and oceanographic data into live movement maps, predictive drift modelling, and shoreline‑risk alerts.

03 — Intercept

Offshore capture

Engineered interception systems and professionally crewed vessels capture sargassum in the drift‑risk zone — far enough offshore that nothing lands on your beach.

04 — Process

Our own facilities

Biomass is transported to the Pelara processing hub and converted into stable carbon using our proprietary reactor technology. One accountable partner, end to end.

Why it matters now

Sargassum stopped being a bad year.
It’s every year.

The Atlantic seaweed belt has returned every season since 2011, arriving earlier and heavier. For any coastline that earns its living from visitors, that turns a weather event into a permanent operating cost.

Closing the loop

What we remove becomes stable carbon.

Left on the sand, sargassum decomposes and releases its carbon — along with methane and odour. We take it the other direction: captured biomass goes to our processing hub and is converted into stable carbon, with verified environmental impact you can report against.

Processed by Pelara Marine in our own reactors, giving you a clear, auditable chain of custody.
Reduced methane emissions compared with letting biomass rot on the shoreline or in landfill.
Verified environmental impact documented against the tonnage removed from your coast.
Support for sustainability programs, with figures your ESG reporting can use directly.
