CAPABILITY HORIZON

Extend underwater capability from hulls to offshore infrastructure

Offshore wind and solar are long-term application directions for OceanFuture. Current work focuses on need discovery, scenario definition and joint validation.

LONG-TERM CAPABILITY HORIZON

Discuss an application
CONCEPT VISUAL

01 / DEEP-WATER WIND DIRECTION

Start with underwater records to understand offshore operating needs

Work with asset owners to define inspection targets, operating conditions and data needs around foundations, connections and reviewable underwater areas.

Discuss baselines early
and leave room for lifecycle records

02 / OFFSHORE SOLAR DIRECTION

Discuss baselines early and leave room for lifecycle records

Explore a feasible path from handover records to repeat observation across floating structures, connections and moorings.

CONCEPT VISUAL

Economic maintenance loop

A framework for future joint validation

This area remains a capability horizon and validation direction. Targets, intervals, criteria and delivery methods require project engineering review.

  1. 01

    Define the scenario

    Confirm the asset, water conditions and current operating process with the owner.

  2. 02

    Explore a baseline

    Assess how comparable underwater records could begin near commissioning.

  3. 03

    Design repeat inspection

    Shape repeatable capture around the asset and operating constraints.

  4. 04

    Retain findings

    Keep location, imagery and context available for engineering review.

  5. 05

    Validate coordination

    Test an appropriate organisation of equipment, people and field resources.

  6. 06

    Review outcomes

    Bring post-work records back into the long-term asset context.

Define an underwater scenario worth validating
