Your challenges. Our solutions
Customised solutions for those applications when a standard product isn’t quite right, or doesn’t yet exist
Our custom engineering team creates novel solutions for a wide variety of client problems and applications in the world’s oceans and seas. No project is too big or too small. Not every offshore application or problem can be resolved with the same solution. We know that sometimes to solve a subsea challenge, standard off-the-shelf products are not quite right – you need a customized approach.
Custom engineering for real-world subsea challenges
Not every offshore challenge can be solved with a standard product. Often, proven solutions are close—but not quite right. That’s when a customised engineering approach is needed.
With more than 50 years of experience, Sonardyne has a long track record of turning specific technical challenges into reliable, application‑focused systems. Across offshore energy, ocean science, autonomy, robotics and monitoring, we work closely with you to understand the environment, the risks and the outcome you need to achieve.
From adapting positioning and communications transponders for specific underwater vehicles to delivering integrated systems for long‑term seabed monitoring and wireless seabed‑to‑shore data transfer, our focus is always the same: solutions that are safe, low‑risk, cost‑effective and dependable throughout their operational life.

For energy
From monitoring pipeline movement, through measuring parameters in oil wells, to detecting when a wind turbine mooring cable has broken, we provide custom engineered solutions that span the offshore energy.
For defence
We create custom solutions that help protect ports and harbours from underwater threats, that can scan the seabed for mines and enable autonomous surface and subsea robots to carry out your mission.
For ocean science
Bespoke configurations of our trusted solutions can help you understand critical oceanographic processes, from measuring seabed displacement at subduction zones, to detecting life-threatening tsunamis and delivering science data on demand.
