About

FORSSEA Robotics develops underwater systems (autonomous robots, intelligent cameras) for inspection and exploration missions in the offshore energy sector (offshore wind farms, Oil & Gas, Military). After 5 years of R&D, the company began marketing its technologies in 2020, and is already working with a number of major accounts (Technip, Eiffage).
Ifremer, Europe’s leading research center for ocean knowledge, has taken a stake in the company to accelerate partnerships in deep-sea environments.


Robotics and underwater vision

Activities
Designers and suppliers of integrated functional solutions, equipment and components
Drones (underwater, surface, aerial) and underwater robotics
Products and Services
Tilt control and visual positioning solution

V-LOC calculates the real-time coordinates of your assets thanks to the open-source beacons affixed to them. Our technology is embedded in a calibrated camera that comes in aerial and underwater versions, or for high-precision marine surveys.

The DriX O-16 USV has been designed to deploy and recover subsea systems. This vision is now becoming reality with the successful integration of FORSSEA’s new Argos X inspection-class ROV. This milestone enhances DriX O-16’s versatility, enabling subsea inspection from near-surface to 300 m, alongside hydroacoustic survey and surveillance payloads—all from a proven, resilient and sensor-agnostic platform.

Forssea is an integrated ROV company with strong technological background.

We conceive, manufacture and operate new generation Obs-Class vehicles dedicated to coastal environments, with the ambition to promote operations from low emission vessels.

Infrastructure

In 2022, Forssea moved into dedicated premises just a few minutes from the port of Sète and the TGV station. We are fully equipped for ambitious R&D work, ROV manufacturing and after-sales services.

Our ARGOS ROV completed autonomous flights around wind turbine foundations during the Saint-Nazaire 2025 ROV Survey Campaign, onboard the ALKA LARGO CTV. Waypoints were generated in a dedicated digital twin with the Client, enabling pre-programmed flight paths at various speeds, while manual control remained available at all times. INS/DVL positioning supported 1–3 hour inspections, delivering faster, more stable GVI/CVI of key assets such as anodes, cable exits and ICCP.
