A New Chapter for ecoSUB Robotics

We're delighted to announce that the ecoSUB Robotics division of Planet Ocean Ltd has relocated to a new 8,750 sq ft air conditioned facility in Petersfield, Hampshire.

This move reflects the significant growth we're seeing across the AUV sector. Already best in class, users are increasingly demanding larger, more capable autonomous systems and expanded production capacity to support them.

Bringing our operations together under one roof, the new facility features:

✅ Dedicated engineering and production areas
✅ Research and testing laboratories
✅ Test tank facilities
✅ Modern office space and staff amenities

There is still plenty of unpacking, organising, and fine-tuning to do, particularly in the production area, but we're already excited about the opportunities this new facility creates and look forward to getting it fully operational in the coming weeks.

Our specialist R&D team remains based at the National Oceanography Centre, Southampton, while Planet Ocean Ltd continues to operate from our Camberley facility.

Exciting times ahead as we continue to expand the capabilities and reach of ecoSUB autonomous technology.

Great to be back at a Challenger Society for Marine Science conference, this time in Bangor. If you are attending and not had time to chat with Sam, he would be delighted to update you on what we have been up to since the last CSMS conference in Oban.

It was great to be back at the Marine Measurement Forum (MMF) this time hosted by Teledyne Valeport. Many thanks for the invitation to present, which was taken on by our newest team member, Sam Kirby.

Sam shared insights into how rapid E. coli assessment—through same-day data and more frequent sampling using Fluidion ALERT technology—is helping to deliver a clearer and more timely understanding of water quality around the World.

Very good of the new Secretary of State for Defence, Dan Jarvis to make his first official engagement at the launch of the Uncrewed Systems Centre in Swindon and to spend time discussing the capabilities that ecoSUB Robotics can offer alongside other sovereign capability organisations.
