1. A concept built on a unique, world‑first technological chain

ITMO WATERSHIPS is not just a brand: it is a complete system, built around proprietary and fully replicable technology.

1.1. Gelified water produced onboard a factory‑ship

The core of the model relies on the production at sea of a gelified water made from SAP (Super Absorbent Polymer), enriched with marine fertilizer. This gelified water enables:

• water retention 10 to 40× higher than natural soil,

• a drastic reduction in seedling mortality,

• adaptation to arid, tropical, or semi‑arid climates,

• controlled logistics thanks to continuous production onboard the factory‑ship.

👉 This technology is universal because it adapts to all soil types and climates.

1.2. Controlled incubation and germination of seedlings

Seedlings are incubated in technological containers enabling:

• controlled germination,

• water‑retention monitoring,

• progressive acclimatization,

• standardized batches.

👉 This process guarantees homogeneous quality in any country.

2. A sovereign digital platform: Seahorse Manager

The Seahorse Manager software is the backbone of international traceability.

It ensures:

• geolocation of seedlings,

• automated inventories,

• hydric monitoring,

• traceability of SAP + fertilizer batches,

• monitoring of field teams,

• consolidated MRV+,

• data export for national Article 6.2 registries.

👉 This digital system makes the model replicable, auditable, and compatible with all States.

3. A MRV+ certified by DNV/Verra–VCS: a global standard

The model relies on a reinforced MRV+, certified by DNV, a globally recognized international body.

• Verra/VCS‑aligned methodologies

• Independent audits

• Corresponding Adjustments compliant with Article 6.2

• Automatic data consolidation via Seahorse Manager

👉 This international compliance enables immediate export of the model to any country.

4. A universal legal architecture (Article 6.2)

The ITMO WATERSHIPS concept is based on a framework already recognized by 195 States.

• Letter of Authorization (LoA)

• National registry

• Corresponding Adjustments

• Bilateral transfer of ITMOs

👉 The model is legally compatible with all signatories of the Paris Agreement.

5. A strong and adaptable institutional identity

The ITMO WATERSHIPS brand is designed as an international sovereign label.

• National seal

• Premium visual identity

• Universal motto: Humanitarian · Water · Climate

• Graphic architecture adaptable to each country

👉 Each State can adopt its own version: ITMO WATERSHIPS – [Country Name], while preserving global coherence.

6. An attractive and replicable economic model

The 10–30‑year forward contracts ensure:

• financial stability,

• long‑term visibility,

• secured carbon flows,

• financing of hydric and forestry infrastructures.

👉 This model attracts both States and international corporate buyers.

7. A universal tripartite governance

The State – Waterships – Corporate Buyers model is simple, robust, and exportable.

• The State guarantees sovereignty

• Waterships operates the technology and MRV+

• Buyers finance through long‑term contracts

👉 This governance works in all political contexts.
