Discovery

Kongsberg Discovery develops technology to ensure sustainable management of ocean resources, monitor climate change and critical infrastructure, and safeguard national security. The technology and solutions are aimed at areas such as offshore operations, fisheries, ocean research, maritime operations, sea-based energy production, as well as naval defence and the navy.

The ocean never stands still. And neither does Kongsberg Discovery. Kongsberg Discovery is committed to protecting people and planet by delivering technologies for a secure and sustainable ocean space. 

Ocean Space Sustainability and Surveillance

In a constantly changing market environment, Kongsberg Discovery serves the ocean space, from the deepest sea to outer space. Our business is to continuously develop systems, solutions and products that are key to understanding environmental implications for the ocean ecosystem, and address the complex sustainability challenges the world is facing.

Monitoring critical infrastructure in the ocean space involves systematic and continuous observation of key assets and facilities, including ports, harbors, bridges, dams, energy production assets and communication cables. Kongsberg Discovery has the solutions for this crucial activity, allowing for real-time monitoring and early detection and response to anomalies or disturbances underwater, on the surface, and in the air.

The ocean space is an attractive market with key drivers pointing towards growth. The natural sustainability focus, technology development, autonomous and offshore energy operations and surveillance of critical infrastructure below, on and over the waterline are all growing industry segments.
