Mobile Inspection Robot
The Mobile Inspection Robot is designed for hazardous and complex environments, combining data collection, autonomous navigation, and positioning functions. It frees operators from daily inspection routines such as detecting gas leaks, assessing corrosion, and identifying safety hazards, while supporting valve operations, component replacement, and other basic tasks.
​
Its compact crawler design provides mobility even in confined or obstacle-rich areas, and the explosion-proof build ensures safe deployment in petrochemical, offshore, unmanned shipping, and industrial facilities. Certified to Zone 1 explosion-proof standards, the robot has been successfully applied in offshore projects.
Main Features
Key Performance Metrics
The Mobile Inspection Robot combines a lightweight explosion-proof build with precise navigation and stable manoeuvrability, even in confined or obstacle-rich environments. Its multi-joint manipulator delivers strong lifting capacity and extended reach, enabling reliable inspection and handling tasks across complex industrial and offshore settings.
Tool Capability
The Mobile Inspection Robot performs gas detection, corrosion assessment, and hazard identification while supporting valve operations, component replacement, and other inspection tasks. Its crawler track design with front-swing arms allows obstacle climbing of 10–15 cm, providing reliable mobility in confined or hazardous environments.
Functional Highlights
The Mobile Inspection Robot is built around a modular architecture, allowing operators to equip it with specialised sensors for thermal imaging, gas detection, noise monitoring, and more. Its Zone 1 explosion-proof certification makes it safe for deployment in petrochemical plants, offshore facilities, unmanned vessels, and other high-risk environments. Reliability is reinforced through comprehensive after-sales support provided by Subsea Forge, including 24/7 service, training, and maintenance to ensure continuous operational readiness.
