Ecocoast appointed Xylem’s Authorised Systems and Service Partner across the GCC
Partnership enhances environmental monitoring capabilities for regional marine and coastal projects
Dubai, UAE – 29 September 2026 – Marine solutions specialist Ecocoast has been appointed by Xylem, a global provider of water and environmental monitoring technologies, as its Authorised Systems and Service Partner for the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC).
The partnership strengthens Ecocoast's environmental monitoring solutions portfolio across the GCC through the integration of proven Xylem sensing technologies, including YSI and Aanderaa instruments, into the systems it supplies and services for clients across the UAE, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman and Qatar.
Xylem instruments will be integrated with Ecocoast's configurable data buoy platforms, delivering real-time environmental intelligence for marine and coastal applications. Combining water quality, oceanographic and meteorological monitoring, the solution supports ports, marinas, coastal developments, offshore operations, environmental compliance programmes and marine research initiatives.
Ecocoast has already demonstrated this integration capability through several regional deployments incorporating Xylem technology. At a water and power plant on Saudi Arabia’s Red Sea coast, Ecocoast locally assembled, configured, tested and commissioned a YSI DB1750 Multi Purpose Metocean Buoy, integrating an LDI ROW oil spill sensor and Campbell Scientific logger with cellular telemetry. Live data is streamed to Xylem’s YSI HydroSphere platform for remote monitoring.
In Dubai, Ecocoast delivered a similar system for a major water utility, applying the same locally assembled, fully commissioned approach.
Supported by dedicated facilities in the UAE and Saudi Arabia, Ecocoast provides regional integration, deployment, maintenance and technical support across both its own technologies and partner solutions. This local capability ensures GCC clients receive responsive service and long-term operational support throughout the lifecycle of their environmental monitoring systems.
Ecocoast has also provided sensor repair and YSI DB1750 reconfiguration services for a private island development in Umluj, Saudi Arabia, alongside sensor servicing, repairs and annual maintenance contract calibrations for multiple clients in the UAE.
Joachim de Jenlis, Chief Executive Officer of Ecocoast, said: “This partnership strengthens our ability to deliver complete environmental monitoring solutions tailored to the needs of clients across the GCC. By combining Xylem’s sensing technology with our field-proven data buoy platforms and regional service capability, we are helping organisations monitor and protect their marine environments with reliable, real-time intelligence backed by teams that understand local operating conditions.”
