Maritime Robotics delivers two USVs to DEME
Maritime Robotics, a leader in uncrewed surface vessel (USV) technology, has delivered USVs to DEME, a global solutions provider in the maritime sector. The delivery includes the two-metre Otter USV and the larger, more advanced six-metre Mariner USV.
The Otter USV, a fully electric catamaran, is specifically designed for efficient and precise data acquisition in sheltered, coastal and shallow areas. Complementing this, the Mariner USV boasts a larger payload capacity and extended operational endurance, enabling more demanding offshore missions. Both vessels help ensure commitment to eco-conscious practices, featuring energy-efficient, low-emission designs.
“Maritime Robotics is proud to continue its collaboration with DEME. The partnership underlines the quality and reliability of our products and the trust our customers place in us,” stated Vegard Evjen Hovstein, CEO and founder of Maritime Robotics.
The Otter excels in shallow and coastal waters, while the Mariner is equipped for offshore missions with extended endurance and adaptability. Together, they further expand DEME’s capabilities in data acquisition and operational efficiency, setting new benchmarks in the industry.
