Nauticus Robotics, specializing in autonomous subsea robotics, has concluded a subsea field inspection project for a second global oil and gas client in the Gulf of Mexico. The project utilized the company’s flagship underwater vehicle, the Aquanaut Mark 2, and involved several days of visual inspections of subsea assets. The effort sought to demonstrate the technology’s alignment with the client’s subsea technology roadmap.
The inspection, conducted by the Nauticus Autonomous Solutions team, marks the latest application of the company’s capabilities in autonomous subsea operations. Discussions are reportedly underway between Nauticus and the client regarding potential projects for 2025. John Gibson, CEO and President of Nauticus Robotics, emphasized the environmental and operational advantages of the company’s technology, stating that the use of autonomous systems can reduce fuel consumption and associated emissions.
Nauticus Robotics designs and develops autonomous ocean robots for a range of industries, leveraging advanced sensors, artificial intelligence, and adaptive algorithms to enable these systems to perform in complex underwater environments. The company’s offerings span standalone services, vehicle sales, and software licensing, catering to both commercial and defense markets. Its technology portfolio includes solutions for modernizing traditional remotely operated vehicle (ROV) operations and supporting third-party platforms. The company’s focus on reducing operational costs, emissions, and environmental risks aims to improve the sustainability and efficiency of subsea infrastructure management.
