Marine UXO Survey and Clearance Capabilities_

This versatile system creates a high-resolution image of the seabed, regardless of water clarity. Capable of detecting objects to 0.2m in length and covering 100m in a single sweep, this system is a cost-effective and efficient method to accurately identify seabed contacts.

The geo-referenced seabed image can also be integrated with other geophysical datasets to provide a full seabed interpretation suitable for multiple engineering projects.

This system is used to detect ferrous objects either buried or lying on the seabed. This is commonly used for ferrous marine UXO but is also capable of detecting cables, pipes, fishing gear and any other ferrous debris that may cause an obstruction to your operations. Multiple magnetometer configurations can be deployed depending on your project requirements.

The geo-referenced magnetometer data can also be integrated with other geophysical datasets to provide a full seabed interpretation suitable for multiple engineering projects.

Our fully fitted ROV (Remotely Operated Vehicle) fleet is equipped to carry out comprehensive marine surveys and precise target investigations. This versatile option can be operated from a vehicle parked on the dockside, on a barge, or on a survey vessel, making it suitable for a multitude of marine environments.

Our ROVs are equipped with an array of tools, including a gradiometer array, side scan sonar, and a high-resolution camera for precise object detection. Additionally, they feature a dredge pump and manipulators to assist with thorough target investigations.

With our ROV fleet, near real-time surveys and target investigations become a reality. This capability allows us to provide immediate ALARP (As Low As Reasonably Practicable) sign-off on time-sensitive projects.

Alongside our ROV, we also have a large crane barge, 23’ work boat, RIB boat and a low mag signature aluminium safety boat in our fleet.

Our experienced dive team is ready to deploy at short notice. With nearly 200 years of combined experience and a deep understanding of marine UXO operations, they provide reliable, professional intervention under all conditions.
