Xocean has completed its first uncrewed vessel survey in Irish Waters.

Last week, the company launched the USV off the coast of Co. Louth to undertake an environmental survey of the seabed in collaboration with the Dundalk Institute of Technology (DkIT).

This is the first time an uncrewed vessel has operated in Irish waters and represents a major step forward in reducing the carbon footprint associated with offshore survey operations.
