GEOxyz operates its own fleet and Unmanned Surface Vessels (USVs), which are already operationally controlled by dotOcean’s software. Combining GEOxyz’s hands-on offshore field experience with dotOcean’s expertise in robotics and data intelligence gives both companies the acceleration the current market demands. Through this integration, GEOxyz permanently anchors this critical cloud robotics software within its own organization, alongside dotOcean’s established network in the defense industry. In these sectors, dotOcean builds upon a strong multi-year track record, including projects within the European Defence Fund (EDF) and multiple international industrial partnerships.
By fully integrating GEOxyz’s operational fleet with dotOcean’s software technology, both companies directly connect software development with real-world offshore execution. dotOcean will operate as a specialized unit within GEOxyz to further scale applications surrounding USVs and offshore security.
“dotOcean brings exactly the kind of software architecture and defense expertise that aligns with our growth strategy: driving innovation, automation, and robotisation across everything we do. Crucially, it highlights our ability to spearhead such advanced technological developments here in Belgium and deploy them globally. This integration secures our technology roadmap, deepens our internal engineering expertise, and enables us to deliver even more reliable, data-driven autonomous data platforms to our international clients in the offshore energy, defense and infrastructure sectors.” – Patrick Reyntjens, CEO GEOxyz
“Joining forces with GEOxyz provides dotOcean with the operational scale and offshore experience required to deploy our cloud robotics technology on a significantly larger scale. Our software has been powering GEOxyz’s USVs for years, providing a solid base to build upon. While maintaining our brand identity and innovative strength, we gain the ideal platform to accelerate the rollout of our technology.” – Koen Geirnaert, CEO dotOcean
