A versatile solution across key industries

Offshore

Offshore renewables, critical underwater infrastructure, and aquaculture are essential to meet the growing demands of the energy transition, address food insecurity, and support sustainable economic growth.

How we support the offshore business:

  • Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA): PlanBlue assesses the physical, biological, and geological features of the seafloor through non-invasive seabed surveys, providing essential data for marine ecosystem conservation. They are crucial for evaluating current conditions and planning long-term monitoring, especially to track biodiversity recovery in areas impacted by human activities. PlanBlue offers an AI-powered solution to collect, analyze, and standardize data on marine ecosystems, helping meet new regulations like the EU Nature Restoration Law and the UK Marine Net Gain framework.
  • Helping to drive nature-positive outcomes: The seafloor reveals much more than just the direct impact of underwater activities. As a reflection of the surrounding ocean, it highlights ecosystem stressors. These data allows for going beyond mitigation and actively contributing to nature-positive initiatives. By re-analyzing your data, we can help you to identify root causes of ecosystem degradation, enabling precise and targeted restoration efforts to compensate for environmental impacts.
  • Maintenance & Asset Integrity: Condition Monitoring of subsea infrastructures refers to the continuous or periodic assessment of the health, performance, and integrity of underwater infrastructures (pipelines, cables, foundations and platforms), to detect early signs of degradation, damage, or failure. It prevents the Asset Owner from unexpected failures that can be very costly and difficult to repair. Condition Monitoring improves reliability of subsea systems and optimizes maintenance planning by reducing downtime of for example a wind farm.

Maritime Security

Critical subsea infrastructure like cables, pipelines, telecommunication lines, naval systems, and surveillance platforms is vital to national security and operational resilience.

How we support Maritime Security:

  • Strategic seabed intelligence: PlanBlue delivers high-resolution, AI-powered seafloor mapping to support reconnaissance, site selection, and long-term monitoring. Our data helps detect anomalies, assess terrain, and understand environmental factors affecting mission success.
  • Secure deployment and smarter monitoring: Accurate, geo-referenced seabed data enables efficient infrastructure placement and enhances surveillance planning. Our cutting edge, semi-autonomous surveys dramatically reduce vessel time,Our semi-autonomous surveys reduce vessel use, lower costs, and deliver high-quality data faster than ever.and accelerate data delivery.
  • Infrastructure protection and threat detection: We monitor asset integrity to identify early signs of damage, interference, or sabotage, supporting predictive maintenance and mission readiness. Reanalysis capabilities of collected data helps detect environmental disruptions linked to illicit activities.

Nature-based solutions

Restoring and protecting marine ecosystems through nature-based solutions – such as artificial reefs, seagrass planting, and coral replanting – revives biodiversity, strengthens fisheries, and supports coastal livelihoods. These efforts also provide co-benefits like coastal protection, tourism, and blue carbon credits, while reducing risks for sectors like real estate and insurance.

How we support nature-based solutions:

  • Transparency and credibility: Our technology supports nature-based solutions – including seagrass restoration and conservation, establishment of artificial reefs, coral replanting, and other ecosystem restoration programs – by providing transparent, science-based insights into marine ecosystem health. Whether a site has already been selected for protection or restoration, or is still being evaluated, we can identify the underlying ecosystem stressors, such as pollution, overuse, or degradation, that contributed to habitat decline. Addressing these root causes is essential for ensuring long-term ecological success.
  • Rapid insights: Through continuous monitoring and color-coded visualizations, we help track restoration progress and ecosystem recovery over time. We generate geo-referenced data on biomass, biodiversity, and carbon storage, helping projects meet rigorous standards. These metrics establish credibility with stakeholders such as local communities, regulators, and funders by clearly demonstrating ecological and economic impact.
  • Quick decision-making: Our automated data processing pipelines dramatically reduce time-to-data, giving stakeholders the ability to act quickly. When challenges arise – such as new anthropogenic pressures, disease outbreaks, or coral bleaching – our tools can rapidly detect emerging stressors, allowing for timely interventions and adaptive management that protect long-term outcomes.
