Restore Subsea
Restore Subsea is a deep tech start-up enabling cleaner oceans. We develop innovative solutions that create significantly better outcomes in the subsea removal & restoration market. Operators and governments are incentivised to achieve their mutual goals of cost efficiency and sustainability. However, these goals don’t always align with the existing subsea supply chain, that’s incentivised to maximise ROC from existing assets and solutions.
We are focused on enabling significant step changes in outcomes in our market. We believe in respectfully challenging the status quo. We believe in thinking differently.
X-Lay is our 1st flagship technology. It enables Subsea Contractors to remove pipelines at >50% cost savings, with better environmental outcomes than existing technology. We have patents granted in the UK and pending in USA & Australia. Thailand was the 1st country ever to start removing subsea pipelines at scale from 2022. Australia is expected to be the 2nd country, with many others including the UK to follow. A key goal is to obtain a DNV SOC for X-Lay, to pre-qualify for looming tenders. We are currently seeking investors, plus partnerships with operators &/or contractors aligned with our vision to complete the Commercial Demonstrator Phase of X-Lay.
