Professional aerial data, inspection, and monitoring services across the North East and UK.
We support construction, infrastructure, energy, and commercial projects with accurate data capture, structured reporting, and safety-led operations.
Focused on clarity, compliance, and reliable outcomes.
Professional drone operations for offshore platforms, wind farms, and marine environments — delivered with HSE awareness, operational understanding, and safety-led planning.
Our Offshore & Renewable Energy service delivers professional aerial inspection, monitoring, and survey capabilities for complex marine and offshore environments. Operations are planned around safety protocols, SIMOPS requirements, and operational constraints — not generic flight plans.
Operations are led by Peter Regan — an Onshore & Offshore HSE Advisor with extensive experience on North Sea wind farm installations, O&M campaigns, and decommissioning projects. We understand helicopter operations, SIMOPS, exclusion zones, and marine safety protocols.
Peter has worked on live offshore platforms, wind farm installations, and marine operations — not just coastal surveys from shore.
Blade inspections, foundation verification, access road condition, and construction progress tracking for offshore and onshore wind projects.
Operations coordinated with vessel movements, helicopter schedules, crane lifts, and other simultaneous operations — not disruptive flyovers.
Inspection reports with defect severity classifications, annotated imagery, and compliance documentation — suitable for technical review and regulatory submissions.
Supporting offshore oil & gas, renewable energy, and marine infrastructure with professional aerial operations that respect operational complexity and safety requirements.
| Capability | Specification | Application |
|---|---|---|
| Flight Range | Up to 5km offshore (VLOS) | Platform inspections, wind farm surveys, coastal monitoring |
| Weather Tolerance | Wind up to 20mph, light rain capable | Operational in typical North Sea conditions |
| Thermal Imaging | Radiometric thermal (30Hz, 640x512) | Electrical fault detection, solar panel defects, heat loss |
| Visual Resolution | 2–5cm GSD at typical offshore altitudes | Blade crack detection, structural defect identification |
| Vessel Operations | Launch/recovery from moving vessels | Marine surveys, port inspections, subsea support |
| Communication | Satellite comms backup available | Beyond VLOS contingency, remote location operations |
All offshore operations include comprehensive risk assessments, Operational Safety Cases (OSC), emergency procedures, and coordination with marine coordinators, vessel masters, and platform supervisors. We hold Article 11 permissions for congested areas and extended range operations where required.
From initial briefing through to final reporting, every offshore deployment follows a structured methodology designed for safety, compliance, and reliable data capture in complex marine environments.
We establish clear inspection objectives, safety requirements, and operational constraints for your offshore or marine environment.
Detailed planning ensures safe, compliant operations aligned with marine and offshore safety protocols.
Data capture conducted by experienced personnel following established safety procedures and operational protocols.
Clear reports delivered in agreed formats with supporting imagery, annotations, and recommendations where required.
Peter holds offshore survival certificates, marine safety training, and has worked on North Sea installations with major operators including TotalEnergies, Shell, and Equinor.
Every offshore deployment includes a detailed OSC with emergency procedures, communication protocols, and recovery plans.
Article 11 permissions for extended range and congested area operations, plus standard A2/GVC certifications.
£10M public liability, worldwide coverage including offshore and marine operations.
We understand the complexities of marine operations and coordinate closely with vessel masters, marine coordinators, and platform supervisors to ensure safe, non-disruptive operations that integrate with your existing safety systems.
All offshore deployments include water survival equipment, vessel recovery procedures, emergency communication protocols, and coordination with local coastguard and rescue services where applicable.
Whether it's wind farm blade inspections, platform structural surveys, or marine infrastructure monitoring — we'll advise on the safest, most effective approach for your operational environment.
