SolarisTech Redefines Maritime Advisory with Hands-On Implementation and AI-Driven Compliance

Busan, South Korea – March 31, 2025 — For decades, maritime consultancy has meant overpriced slide decks, generic audits, and recycled checklists. But a new player is reshaping the landscape. SolarisTech, a U.S.-based maritime and offshore consultancy, is gaining attention for a different approach—one grounded in execution, technology, and outcomes.

“We don’t just advise—we implement,” said Thomas Blenk, President & CEO of SolarisTech. “We stand onboard with our clients, translating compliance into action and risk into resilience.”

Bridging the Gap Between Regulation and Operation

SolarisTech specializes in helping vessel operators, managers, and shipyards comply with international regulations while improving operational performance. The firm focuses on five key service areas:

- Crew Training & Flag State Compliance

- Classification Advisory & New Construction Oversight

- Safety System Implementation & Equipment Selection

- Shipyard and Supplier Profiling

- Maritime Safety & Labor Compliance

These services are not theoretical—they’re delivered through audits, onboard attendances, and corrective action planning designed to reduce detentions and improve performance against PSC and flag criteria.

Leadership Built for Modern Maritime Challenges

The company’s leadership team brings together decades of industry insight. Blenk, a veteran in flag state compliance, leads SolarisTech alongside Jihyun Kim, Executive Vice President and CMO, who manages international partnerships and regulatory engagement across Asia and beyond.

Joining them is Roberto Herrera, an expert in offshore asset performance optimization and project implementation. His contributions have been key in expanding SolarisTech’s footprint across high-volume offshore hubs and improving outcomes for complex asset portfolios.

Nautilux: Artificial Intelligence Meets Regulatory Compliance

At the core of SolarisTech’s tech-forward strategy is Nautilux, a proprietary AI-based compliance platform. Nautilux automates the review of certificates, checklists, and documentation for stakeholders ranging from flag states and class societies to banks and legal teams.

Rather than just identifying risks, Nautilux facilitates corrective action planning, stores blockchain-secured records, and offers real-time feedback loops—allowing users to stay ahead of inspections and audit cycles. The platform is currently undergoing demonstrations with industry partners in Asia and North America.

Partnership with SOLAS MODU Marine Services

SolarisTech has also partnered with SOLAS MODU Marine Services, led by CEO Bikram Jena, to expand its engineering and shipbuilding advisory in India and North Asia. The collaboration focuses on enhancing shipyard quality, equipment selection, and regulatory readiness for offshore and modular vessels.

“Bikram brings deep insight into modular offshore systems and safety equipment,” said Blenk. “Together, we’re strengthening the foundation for regulatory compliance from the design stage through final delivery.”

A Systems-Based Approach to Compliance

“Most advisory firms identify risk. SolarisTech reduces it,” said Kim. “Our goal is to get clients off detention lists, onto white lists, and back to sea with confidence.”

With a multidisciplinary team and a digital backbone, SolarisTech offers a systemic approach to compliance that aligns with emerging global standards, evolving flag criteria, and modern operational demands.
