Transmark Subsea acquires WiSub, enables wireless underwater drone docking

18.10.2019


Connectivity in the underwater environment is the mission for Norwegian companies Transmark Subsea and WiSub; their combined forces deliver unprecedented automation capabilities to the blue growth sector internationally. Both companies have been key equipment and service providers to underwater intervention drone (UID™) docking stations since 2018. This convergence of mature cable and connector manufacturing and design with innovative wireless underwater power and data transfer systems ensures reliable delivery of turnkey docking solutions. These systems support subsea automation, especially for enabling underwater drones to remain persistently resident at the underwater work site but operated safely from shore.

Transmark Subsea’s Managing Director Leif Hugo Arntsen states: “Transmark Subsea is taking a leadership position in emerging markets through recent acquisitions and projects including delivering advanced systems for remote and automated control. WiSub’s team and technology are an important part of our strategic vision in this space.”

“I am excited for WiSub to be joining the Transmark family. Our combined forces make a whole which is greater than the sum of its parts,” said Mark Bokenfohr, WiSub’s former CEO/founder and Transmark Subsea’s new Business Development Manager. “We’re proud to be part of accelerating access to oceans and the responsible use of their vast and valuable resources.”
