In the video, our client GOSL Nigeria Limited showcases how it is expanding its offshore and nearshore survey capabilities through HydroSurv’s Rapid Environmental Assessment Vessels (REAV) combining the long-endurance REAV‑47 with the agile REAV‑28.
David Hull, CEO of HydroSurv, explains how the REAV‑47 was purpose-built to push the boundaries of autonomous operations – delivering up to 72 hours of hybrid-powered endurance in a compact, cost-efficient platform designed for real-world offshore conditions.
GOSL’s Survey Project Manager highlights how the REAV‑47 aligns with their strategy to modernise operations – enabling uncrewed deployment from shore and the collection of high-resolution data, even in shallow island waters. The addition of the REAV‑28 enhances this capability, offering a flexible, scalable USV fleet to support diverse survey requirements across inland, coastal, and landfall missions.
With GOSL as HydroSurv’s first customer in the West African region, this project marks the start of long-term capability and innovation in the region and sets a model for future deliveries.
