Hydro International
Exail, together with its partner Thesta, has delivered a DriX H-8 uncrewed surface vessel (USV) to Orlen Petrobaltic. This marks the very first commercial deployment of DriX in Poland, where the complex maritime environment of the Baltic Sea demands innovative and resilient solutions for offshore operations.
The Exail’s DriX H-8 USV is known for its robustness, endurance and ability to deliver high-quality hydrographic and geophysical data. With its autonomous capabilities and ability to operate in challenging offshore conditions, the DriX H-8 offers a safer, more efficient and environmentally friendly alternative to traditional crewed vessels.
First-time integration
Orlen Petrobaltic will deploy the DriX H-8 in the Baltic Sea to support offshore platform activities. For this project, the DriX H-8 will be equipped with

The crucial importance of the bathymetry echogram for the success of excavation work
The Tietê-Paraná Waterway is an important navigable route in Brazil, stretching over 2,400 kilometres. It comprises sections of the Paraná and Tietê rivers and is equipped with lock systems to overcome the elevation differences of the dams. It is crucial for the transportation of goods and passengers, particularly for the transport of agricultural products from states such as Mato Grosso, Mato Grosso do Sul, Goiás and parts of Rondônia, Tocantins and Minas Gerais. Managed by the federal and São Paulo state governments, it is part of the Southeast Logistics Corridor, boosting industrial, tourist and economic development by linking production areas to seaports

Lidar + Sonar = a revolution in seafloor mapping
How the ambitious Florida Seafloor Mapping Initiative is setting the standard for our understanding of coastal environments
By Ryan Cross, Dave Neff, Karen Hart • October 14, 2025
Beneath the sunlit waves of Florida lies an intricate underwater world that few have seen but many depend on. Through the Florida Seafloor Mapping Initiative, Woolpert and partners are capturing this hidden landscape in unprecedented detail. Using aircraft, ships and uncrewed vessels equipped with Lidar and sonar, they have mapped tens of thousands of square kilometres despite hurricanes and rough seas. The resulting seafloor model will enhance navigation, habitat protection and coastal resilience while deepening understanding of Florida’s marine environment.
There are few regions of the United States as defined by or as
