The complete marine-grade drone system can autonomously inspect wind turbines and deliver equipment, reducing service cost and operational downtime both on land and marine environments.

Wind Energy

We specialize in wind turbine inspection with our specialized drones

Wind energy - Upteko ApS

Upteko’s involvement with the wind energy sector comes from our collaboration with the technology providers for the wind industry.

Inspections of wind turbines 
We have been manually inspecting wind-turbines since 2018. Today, we are using this data and knowledge to build a system to automatically inspect windturbines

Upteko’s autonomous drone system will provide high-quality aerial data for all inspections and maintenance requirements, in a safer, more efficient manner, without causing operational downtime.

Our drones are pre-programmed with geo-referenced 3D trajectories for the inspection of wind turbines. While flying the planned routes, several images are acquired. The actual number depends on the camera specification, flight altitude and post-processing performance (overlap between images). All images are georeferenced using the UAV position at the acquisition time and these images are afterwards stitched together and in one picture on which the locations of the damages are shown.

We deliver these data as per the clients' requirements in raw files or provide a damage report that explains the severity of damages from type 1 to type 5.

UPTEKO's automated UAV system equipped with High-res thermal camera can be used in the offshore rigs industry to prevent piracy, oil spill detection, and search and rescue.

Oil & Gas

ODP Payload (Oil detection)
We are working on a solution for detecting oil spills on the surface of the water. We are developing payloads for our drone system that can help detect the signature of oil floating on water surfaces. This payload can be installed on Lärke and can be used to automatically or manually detect oil spills.

Piracy Detection
We have developed an application to detect pirate attacks on off-shore oil rigs and large commercial ships. Pirates use small ships to attack these oil rigs and large commercial ships at night. They take the crew and contents hostage. There are no mobile long-range detection tools with aerial insight to give the crew information about nearby pirates. This results not only in huge loss to the oil industry but also endangers the crew at huge life risks.

The total cost of piracy to the shipping industry, from insurance and time lost, is estimated at over €6B/year.

Upteko’s multipurpose drone system has a feature called perimeter control. This feature allows any member of the crew to investigate surrounding vessels approaching the premises. A built-in feature within the drone system is added to allow a crew member to operate and control the aerial camera in any direction with no prior drone experience. The geothermic cameras and the infrared sensors help to detect the approach of any pirates faster even during night-time.

UPTEKO's drone system is designed to live on and take completely autonomous missions from moving ships assisting the crew with faster, safer, and precision docking.

Offshore & Maritime

We specialize in Maritime drone operations to help make ship- and turbine inspections easier

Offshore & Maritime - Upteko ApS

Upteko has been consistently involved with the maritime industry since its inception. We are developing a drone system solution to live on the ship, to connect port operations on the ground and at the sea, with insight from the sky. This system includes a drone and a charging station for the drone that will be installed on the ship. The drone can autonomously perform a variety of tasks and then fly back and charge its batteries while staying protected against the weather. 

With an in-depth understanding of the challenges that the maritime industries face in attempting long and expensive inspections and other operational tasks, Upteko’s software and hardware drone system allows a 100% automatic inspection of a ship in less than 2 hours. 

Having a permanent drone on a ship will be extremely helpful in a number of cases that can range from Search and Rescue (SAR) operations, vessel docking, dry dock inspections, fire hazard detection and situational awareness among other functionalities.
