Bordelon Marine has completed the conversion and redelivery of the MV Lilly Bordelon, a Stingray Series 260 Class DP-2 Ultra-Light Intervention Vessel (ULIV). Repurposed from an existing platform, the Lilly Bordelon has been transformed into a modern subsea intervention vessel designed to deliver cost-efficient, flexible solutions for offshore operations. The vessel features over 5,500 sq. ft. of clear deck space, a mezzanine deck supporting two work-class ROVs, with an integrated ROV control room.
Phoenix International is pleased to announce that the new CURV 7 Remotely Operated Vehicle (ROV), developed for the Naval Sea Systems Command Supervisor of Salvage and Diving (SUPSALV), has successfully completed its first operational mission.
Spry Technocon Private Limited, an Indian deep-tech startup focused on maritime and underwater technologies, has announced a strategic partnership with Teledyne Marine, Klein Marine Systems, and VideoRay, an AV company, to jointly address emerging opportunities in advanced Unmanned Mine Countermeasure (MCM) Systems for the Indian Navy.
RAD, the marine technology company developing advanced electric propulsion systems and autonomous vessel technologies for defence and commercial applications, today announces the close of a £4.4 million funding round.. The raise follows a period of strong commercial and product momentum and will fund the company’s next phase of growth.
Kraken Technology Group and Capewell, supported by the Royal Navy under Project Beehive, have successfully completed the world’s first extracted-load airdrop of an uncrewed surface vessel (USV) from an A400M military transport aircraft.
Oceaneering will supply two work class ROVs and specialized tooling packages in addition to carrying out monitoring and positioning support operations offshore Brazil. The ROV systems will be deployed from AKOFS Offshore’s subsea engineering support vessel (SESV) Aker Wayfarer, which Petrobras has contracted for intervention, installation, and abandonment support scopes. The project will be executed by Oceaneering’s local team in Brazil.

Every two years, the IEEE OES AUV Symposium brings the marine robotics community together to share ideas, exchange lessons learned and foster future research and collaboration. Our focus is on the technologies and applications of autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs), autonomous surface vessels (ASVs), underwater gliders, and Lagrangian floats, with most papers centered on field robotics or data collected from real-world deployments.
Be part of a global gathering at the heart of marine research, technology, and innovation surrounded by institutions like MBARI, the Naval Postgraduate School, and Hopkins Marine Station.
SAE Media Group is pleased to announce that Unmanned Maritime Systems Technology USA (UMST USA) 2026 returns to Arlington, Virginia, this September 14-16, 2026. As North America’s premier event dedicated exclusively to maritime robotics and autonomous systems, UMST USA 2026 will convene senior naval leadership, government decision-makers, and industry innovators to accelerate the development and operational integration of robotics and autonomous systems (RAS) across the maritime domain.
