Offshore Drone Inspections in Wales
Professional, sea-safe offshore drone inspections in Wales supporting shipping, yachts, and coastal structures.
Recent Work
Selected work from across London and the Thames.
We cover Wales and the surrounding Canal & River Trust Waterways coast for offshore drone inspections. The same crew can cover a yacht shoot in the morning and a quay inspection in the afternoon. Early starts are normal, because the calmest water is usually the earliest water.
Where the Wales target is offshore, we plan the vessel as carefully as the flight. RTK-equipped platforms deliver centimetre-accurate mapping of quays, defences and foreshore. Where the site is a working terminal, we operate to the port's permit-to-work system.
Clearances for Wales are arranged in advance, including any restricted-area permissions. Crews are trained for water safety as well as licensed for commercial flight. Privacy and security on the port estate are considered in the flight plan.
If sea state or wind closes the window, we rebook the next viable slot at no extra cost. Ask about vessel support for Wales, because offshore work usually needs it. The quickest route is a short email with the location, the subject and the deadline.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does offshore drone inspections in Wales cost?
It depends on vessel support, flight time and deliverables, so we quote per project rather than from a rate card. Send us the Wales details and we will come back with a fixed, obligation-free price.
Do you coordinate with the vessel's skipper?
Yes. Given the skipper's contact we plan the passage and the shot list together, which is what makes the difference between a vessel that happens to be in frame and one that is positioned for the shot.
Can you support offshore operations in the Canal & River Trust Waterways region?
Yes. We partner with Cinecraft for MCA-coded vessels that act as mobile launch and recovery platforms, which lets our pilots work several miles offshore tracking vessels or inspecting structures.
