Trusted subsea technologies helping industry transition to renewable energy
Offshore energy is not new to us; it’s been the core of our business for over five decades so we can help you on your path to sustainability, whether that’s in wind, wave, tidal or floating solar technology.
Environmental studies
We’re able to help you get the answers you need for environmental impact assessments with a wide range of in-situ sensing solutions designed for long-endurance seabed deployment, onboard analytics, high bandwidth seafloor-to-surface-to-desk data recovery, and positioning solutions for instruments, divers, vehicles and vessels.
UXO surveys, site characterisation, remediation
Our acoustic-inertial technology portfolio offers versatile solutions for UXO survey and clearance operations using remote and autonomous vehicles, vessels-of-opportunity and unmanned or uncrewed surface vessels (USVs) – solutions that are helping mitigate risk.
Construction
Reducing risk, reducing complexity, reducing time offshore. Our trusted techniques and systems support your goals for installing fixed and floating offshore wind turbines, with less hardware, using less time and with fewer people.
Wind farm operations and predictive maintenance
Our expertise encompasses life-of-farm autonomous networks of sensors to monitor seabed deformation, current and tidal profiling, array cables and structure-mounted mooring line and corrosion monitoring instruments with data analyses onboard, delivered on-demand direct to you.
We also support subsea cable protection, including in floating offshore wind, where we’re working to help reduce the risk of dynamic array cable failure by providing real-time and predictive analytics on the environmental loading on subsea array and export cables.
Vessel systems, including uncrewed
We’re able to extend the operational capability of your offshore wind farm vessel fleet, reduce downtime and enable your team to remotely support offshore operations from onshore. And with solutions for USVs, we can deliver your data faster, safer and more sustainably than ever.
Survey, remove, install, monitor, maintain. Your applications, our innovations.
Sustainable, safe, efficient
Carbon neutral by 2025
We’re aiming to become carbon neutral by the end of 2025, an ambitious goal which covers direct and indirect emissions, including those associated with manufacturing as well as supply chain activities, from our UK sites and operations. It cements our long-term commitment to being an environmentally responsible and sustainable company to do business with.
Remote, over-the-horizon, uncrewed
Operating remotely and managing projects with less people offshore is more important than ever, so we’ve created new products and services to be by your side, even when we can’t be. Innovations such as ROAM which connects our experts to your team during live operations, and a fully managed data harvesting service using USVs.
Efficient, smart, quick
Our field-proven, low-risk technology is designed to let you achieve more with less hardware deployed on the seabed, efficiencies that save not just hours but days of vessel time, and without compromising the specifications set for your project.

Shallow water site investigation for offshore wind
Read if you’re interested in site characterisation studies for offshore wind farm developments, and how our Mini-Ranger 2 USBL helped PDE Offshore in the Taiwan Strait to track and position their drilling frame on the seabed.

DVL aiding – in the harshest environments
Operations involving large vehicles or equipment close to the seafloor can pose a challenge for most traditionally mounted navigation systems. For many applications in these environments, mounting the Doppler velocity log (DVL) with an unobstructed downward view to achieve bottom lock is particularly challenging. Not any more.

Deploy, retrieve, repeat – made easy with RT 6 acoustic release
Shallow water isn’t any less demanding than deep water. DynamOcean operates in tidal estuaries with fast-flowing water and ever-changing environmental settings. Using our acoustic releases and underwater positioning technology they were able to reliably deploy and retrieve their ADCP sensors.
