Greensea IQ Launches Autonomous Hull and Infrastructure Inspection Robot
is engineered as a configurable system for mission specific inspections.“We rely on ports and harbors worldwide, for our infrastructure. With all of those vessels coming in and out, we have no way of knowing what is on the underside of those ships. We’ve taken the navigation and autonomy technology that we’ve built EverClean upon, the technology that allows an autonomous vehicle to crawl along the hull, and we’ve developed a security robot that can be deployed to sweep from stem to stern reliably and with high confidence to provide an operator 100% intelligence on the hull of

TDI-Brooks Awarded Offshore Survey Contract by Delfin LNG
to begin in late September. This integrated survey program will provide critical seabed and subsurface data to support the continued development of the deepwater port infrastructure.The Delfin LNG project is poised to become the first U.S. offshore LNG export facility utilizing floating production technology. Located at a brownfield deepwater port in the Gulf of Mexico off Louisiana, the project leverages existing infrastructure, including Delfin’s acquired UTOS pipeline system, to reduce capital requirements. The full development envisions up to three floating LNG (FLNG) vessels with a combined
Bureau Veritas Gives Blessing to Seatrium’s 30MW Floating Data Center
that supports the digital economy. Bureau Veritas’ Approval in Principle provides an important validation of the concept and strengthens our confidence in progressing the development of this innovative, next-generation, offshore platform,” added Aziz Merchant, Executive Vice President, Technology & New Product Development at Seatrium
Nauticus Unveils Next-Gen Electric Manipulator for AUVs
Nauticus Robotics has completed the first prototype of its next-generation electric manipulator, marking a milestone in the company's strategy to expand its portfolio of autonomous subsea intervention technologies.The manipulator has been designed for autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) and next-generation robotic systems, and is intended to integrate with Nauticus' Aquanaut vehicle and broader autonomous robotics platform.Unlike conventional hydraulic manipulators, the modular electric system is designed to reduce maintenance requirements, improve reliability, minimize downtime and lower
Smaller Footprint, Broader Missions: How CHASING ROVs Expand Subsea Inspection Capabilities
Professional lightweight ROVs are moving beyond visual observation to support positioning, 3D modeling and nondestructive testing—without the deployment footprint of a work-class system.Subsea inspection has traditionally relied on commercial divers, large work-class ROVs and small camera platforms. A growing number of routine missions now fall between those categories.Operators may need to inspect a platform node, follow several kilometers of pipeline or return to the same wind foundation for comparison months later. These jobs demand stable maneuvering, professional sensors and traceable data
BW Ideol, NGE Join Forces on Floating Wind Factory in France
industry investment scheme.BW Ideol said the Fos3F facility is expected to support the supply of more than 200 floating foundations between 2030 and 2037 and create more than 1,300 direct jobs in the Fos-sur-Mer area.The partners said the collaboration combines BW Ideol's floating offshore wind technology with NGE's expertise in delivering large-scale infrastructure projects to support the development of a domestic floating wind supply chain in France
CorPower Gains World-First DNV Wave Energy Prototype Approval
DNV Prototype Certificate for a wave energy converter (WEC), marking a major leap towards bankable, utility-scale wave energy.The CorPower C4 has been certified by DNV under DNV-SE-0120, Certification of Wave Energy Converters and Arrays, following independent verification.The certificate confirms the technology meets DNV’s stringent requirements for structural strength, reliability and safety, establishing a new international benchmark for the wave energy industry. It also establishes a significantly reduced technology risk, unlocking the project finance, insurance and institutional investment in
