WFS Technologies Ltd

WFS Technologies Ltd develops wireless technology for use underwater, under the name Seatooth. Its focus is subsea automation, the Subsea Internet of Things and subsea cloud computing networks, mainly for the offshore energy sector.

What WFS Technologies Ltd offers

• Seatooth wireless links — radio frequency communication that carries data through water, across the water and air boundary, and through the splash zone.
• Through-material signalling — data transmission through solid materials such as steel plating and concrete.
• Structural health sensors — real-time, non-invasive sensors that watch offshore subsea structures for predictive maintenance.
• Damage and condition monitoring — detection of corrosion, flooded members, cracks, leaks, fatigue, wall thickness, cable temperature and upheaval.

Who it works with

The technology is aimed at operators of offshore energy assets who want better management of those assets, higher output and lower risk.
