SEAMOR Marine

We manufacture the world’s most reliable, versatile & powerful underwater ROVs

For more than 30 years our innovative advancements in underwater remotely operated vehicles (ROV) have changed the way the world sees the deep. SEAMOR Marine traces its roots to 1989, when our first-gen underwater drone technology was developed. New ownership in 2006 significantly evolved the robotics of our next-gen vehicles, expanding the limits of work and exploration in some of the ocean’s most dangerous conditions. For decades our ROVs have inspired learning, growth, and the protection of precious life-sustaining resources.

Our manufacturing facilities are located in beautiful British Columbia, Canada.

Our ROVs operate on every continent and in every major body of water around the globe.

CUSTOMER TESTIMONIALS

“We have completed many inspections so far.  The video is incredible, especially in the potable water conduits we were inspecting! The Chinook system works great, very impressed with the fit and finish of the system.  Our clients and the consulting engineers were very impressed, too. SEAMOR is first rate in communications, all the staff, including the owner, Director & President, Robin,  makes time for you to answer any questions you have no matter when you inquire.”

“We drive the SEAMOR ROVs pretty hard – hundreds of hours per year – and they have performed well for us over a long period of time. They can handle all types of marine and freshwater environments and have the added benefit of high resolution imagery, intuitive control and great portability.”

“The SEAMOR Steelhead ROV has performed beyond our expectations. The power and stability of the vehicle allows for a very precise and fluid inspection. The video camera is high quality with a very good field of view and the rear camera is invaluable when performing tunnel inspections. During our recent project the Steelhead pulled its 1,640’ tether easily with no operational effects to the vehicle”.
