KONGSBERG has signed a new contract for the delivery of its market-leading technologies to protect critical infrastructure, highlighting the growing demand for solutions that safeguard high-value assets and resources.

The contract value for the project is undisclosed.

“Preventing and detecting threats and attacks are essential to protect people and critical infrastructure. KONGSBERG has the solutions and technology to support countries and industries in their efforts to build resilient systems and maintain operations. This is fundamental in today’s rapidly changing geopolitical landscape,” said Eirik Lie, President and CEO of KONGSBERG.

Critical infrastructure includes essential systems such as oil and gas installations, telecommunication cables, energy grids, ports, and transportation networks, which must be protected against a wide range of threats, from cyber-attacks to natural disasters and physical sabotage.

The project is for an unnamed international customer and will focus primarily on underwater surveillance and protection.

“We are pleased to support this major project with robust protection systems that provide access to data and analysis for time-critical decisions. Our technology enables full-scale delivery across air and underwater domains, including situational awareness, response, inspection, surveillance, and monitoring,” said Camilla Kiss, President of Discovery, a division of KONGSBERG.

“The contract underpins how the market for infrastructure protection is evolving from recognizing the need, to signing a firm order to implement the right solutions. It is also a proof of how KONGSBERG has the technologies and people to serve this growing market,” she added.
