APAC Region Gains Local Access to ScanFish ROTV Rental and Support

With a rapid increase in the offshore wind market, the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region has seen an increasing demand for ScanFish ROTVs, one of the most commonly used sensor platforms for UXO surveys around the world, developed by Danish maritime engineering company, EIVA.

To meet this need efficiently and at lower cost to survey companies, EIVA has shipped a fleet of new ScanFish ROTVs and other rental equipment to their offices in Singapore, where their APAC team operates. EIVA’s rental equipment is therefore ready to be delivered more easily to customers within the APAC region, sent out from Singapore.

"Our customers operating in Asia have emphasized the importance of making ScanFish ROTVs more accessible in this region. We have therefore been working over the past years to ensure our Singapore offices have the rental equipment and man-power needed to support them together with our reps in Japan, Indonesia, China and Malaysia," said Julie Rydberg Sørensen, Technical Sales Manager – Rental | Team Lead, EIVA, who runs the rental activities worldwide, including in the APAC region.

For seabed survey companies operating in the APAC region, shipping times will be reduced by several weeks compared to when shipping out of EIVA offices in DenmarkIn addition, heavy equipment can be shipped via sea-freight rather than air-freight for a more cost-effective solution, while keeping shipping times reasonable.

Not only will rental equipment ship out of Singapore, but EIVA’s team there will be able to offer servicing for the ongoing rental jobs. The Singapore-based team, which provides local support for EIVA’s customers in the region, includes Asia-Pac Area Sales Manager, Nge Aik Moh, and customer support engineer, David Thomson, both of whom have a wealth of experience to understand the needs of surveyors in this region. This team shares offices with sister company Sonardyne, whose positioning sensors are used on EIVA solutions such as ScanFish Equinox, providing a centralized location for survey equipment support and services in this region.
