Ultrabeam Hydrographic

Ultrabeam is a multi-award-winning company specialising in high-definition marine survey and asset inspection. The company was established in Spring 2018 by Andy McLeay and Gabriel Walton, who share over 45 years of combined experience in coastal and offshore surveys. The company was formed to service the inshore survey market by providing high quality hydrographic and geophysical services to a wide range of clients from ports & harbours, utilities, offshore renewable energy, oil & gas and public sector industries. Using a fleet of advanced survey-grade Unmanned Surface Vessels (USVs), Ultrabeam surveys a variety of assets including harbours and quay walls, bridge structures, subsea cables and pipelines, offshore wind and oil and gas platforms. The bespoke systems allow for superior data acquisition even at slow speed and feature a range of benefits including Dynamic Positioning, extended battery life and a large payload with simultaneous sensor mounting. Ultrabeam provides an unparalleled level of accuracy and detail through the use of specialist highly innovative survey tools and techniques. The Ultrabeam difference is in our data supported by our many years of shallow and deepwater survey experience. We see our work as a distinct specialism and rather than overlapping from a core land survey company or being an appendage to a large offshore survey company Ultrabeam is entirely focused on ultra-high-resolution coastal survey and delivery of outstanding high-quality data.
