Our custom engineering division 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 customised approach.
From the simple to the complex
Maybe you also need to integrate multiple devices together or work with third-party suppliers to create a life-of-project system and accompanying support services?
Over our 50-year history, Sonardyne has always provided custom engineering services to address our client’s specific needs. Building on this knowhow, for the last decade, we’ve continually invested in developing and transforming our capabilities and working methods in system engineering, product design, custom solution delivery and service provision. We’re now a fully agile organisation and all parts of the company have been touched by this process, from how we capture users’ specific requirements to through-life project management, materials control and custom manufacturing.
Our team of highly experienced project managers and expert engineers love to find new ways to solve problems and deliver custom engineered systems and solutions that meet your precise requirements. They have tried and tested technologies at their fingertips, with access to a proven portfolio of hardware and software products.
We actively work on projects of all sizes, from the very simple such as a modifying a positioning and communications transponder to suit a specific underwater vehicle, to the complex which could entail a complete monitoring and wireless seabed to shore data harvesting system for tectonic plate motion studies.
Whatever your application, big or small, our custom engineering specialists are available to advise you on the technologies that best fit your goals and then build, deliver, install and support a solution that is safe, low-risk, cost-effective and compliant.
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.
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.
