OceanAlpha is showcasing its latest unmanned surface vessel (USV) solutions at booth ZA35 during Rio Oil & Gas 2026 (ROG.e), held from September 21–24, 2026, at Riocentro in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

Throughout the exhibition, OceanAlpha’s booth is attracting professionals and industry stakeholders from the oil and gas, offshore energy, maritime, engineering, surveying, and environmental sectors. Visitors are showing strong interest in how unmanned technologies can support safer, more efficient, and more sustainable operations in offshore and marine environments, particularly as the energy industry continues to explore digital and autonomous solutions.

At ROG.e 2026, OceanAlpha is showcasing scale models of two of its advanced USV platforms, the V180 and L42B. Designed for different offshore mission requirements, the two platforms demonstrate OceanAlpha’s capabilities in autonomous navigation, mission integration, and unmanned maritime operations. The V180 is a next-generation offshore work platform designed for subsea survey, inspection, and work-class ROV operations. It features up to 30 days of endurance, DP2 capability, and a 35-tonne payload capacity, providing a platform for demanding offshore missions. The L42B is a marine survey USV platform designed for hydrographic and offshore survey applications, with up to eight days of endurance at four knots, towing capabilities, and flexible integration of survey sensors and mission equipment. Its applications include hydrographic surveying, offshore wind and cable route surveys, pipeline inspection, and environmental monitoring.

Through discussions with industry professionals and potential partners, OceanAlpha is sharing its latest developments in autonomous navigation, marine surveying, intelligent mission systems, and unmanned offshore operations. By participating in ROG.e 2026, OceanAlpha looks forward to strengthening connections with customers and partners in Brazil and the wider Latin American market, while exploring new opportunities for USV technologies to support safer, smarter, and more sustainable offshore operations.
