Offshore Drone Inspections in Wigan

Professional, sea-safe offshore drone inspections in Wigan supporting shipping, yachts, and coastal structures.

Recent Work

Selected work from across London and the Thames.

We run offshore drone inspections in Wigan for commercial operators, yacht owners and engineering teams. Briefs come from marine contractors, brokers, port operators and production companies. Small commissions are welcome; a single vessel pass is a legitimate brief.

We plan Wigan flights against live port traffic rather than a static harbour chart. Aircraft are chosen for wind resistance and over-water redundancy rather than convenience. Where the site is a working terminal, we operate to the port's permit-to-work system.

Notifications to the coastguard are made where the Wigan operation warrants it. We carry £10M public liability insurance written to cover marine and over-water operations. We would rather lose the window and rebook than fly a marginal offshore sortie.

We retain the raw Wigan capture in case you need to revisit it. We can assess feasibility for Wigan before you commit to a date. Terms, marine insurance and permissions can all be reviewed before you commit.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you deliver survey-grade data as well as imagery?

Yes. RTK-equipped platforms produce georeferenced orthomosaics and 3D models of quays, defences and structures to centimetre accuracy, delivered in the formats your engineering team already uses.

How do you ensure safety when flying over sea water?

We use redundant airframes with float kits where appropriate, and every flight plan sets geofenced return-to-home limits that account for wind drift, sea state and a moving launch point.

What happens if the weather closes the window in Wigan?

We monitor maritime forecasts in the days beforehand and will tell you early if it looks unworkable. If conditions make the operation unsafe we rebook the next viable window at no additional cost.
