    Beam uses ‘world’s first’ AI-driven autonomous underwater vehicle to install wind turbine

    Beam, a provider of high-technology offshore wind services, has achieved a groundbreaking milestone by deploying “the world’s first” autonomous underwater vehicle driven by artificial intelligence (AI).

    The technology has already been successfully used to inspect jacket structures on Seagreen wind farm, a joint venture partnership between SSE Renewables, TotalEnergies and PTTEP, in a commercial environment. Seagreen is Scotland’s largest offshore site.

    This cutting-edge technology promises to revolutionise the field of marine technology and underwater robotics. By leveraging advanced AI, this technology can perform complex underwater tasks with no human intervention, significantly boosting the efficiency and cost-effectiveness of underwater inspections and surveys.
