Owners of the world’s largest fleet of Saab UK’s Seaeye Falcons, Underwater Contracting (UCO), has ordered a further six Falcons, boosting their fleet to 33 vehicles.

This follows the award of further major contracts in the aquaculture, renewable, and oil and gas sectors to UCO that will see the Falcon fleet working continuously over multi-year contracts providing a range of services in Europe, North America and Australia.

Specialists in ROV operations, UCO has successfully deployed Seaeye Falcon underwater vehicles since 2018 across three continents covering various sectors of industry.

In that time UCO has productively utilised the power and intelligence of the Falcon system when designing and developing industry-leading technologies, including their FOOVER Mortality Recovery system, NETFIX Net Repair system and G-LANCE Cage Cleaning system, inspection cleaning tools.

They chose the Falcon as the world’s top selling underwater robotic vehicle in its class and for its versatility.

The Falcon is designed and manufactured at Saab UK’s Fareham site.
