Uncrewed Aerial and Remote Systems Capability

🚁 Uncrewed Aerial and Remote Systems Capability Expression of Interest Beach Energy (Operations) Limited is seeking to engage with industry experts to understand the current and emerging landscape of Uncrewed Systems—including aerial, underwater, and robotic platforms—to enhance asset inspection, monitoring, and maintenance across their onshore and offshore oil and gas infrastructure. 🎯 Project Scope & Objectives This Expression of Interest (EOI) is a market-sounding exercise aimed at informing Beach Energy's future operating model and procurement strategy. Key areas of interest include: Aerial (UAV/RPAS): Asset inspections, methane detection, thermal imaging, BVLOS operations, and emergency response. Underwater (ROV): Subsea infrastructure inspection, marine surveys, and hull/tank inspections. Confined Space Robotics: Non-entry inspection methodologies and navigation in GPS-denied environments. Digital Integration: Digital twin development, 3D modelling, and AI-enabled defect analytics. 🛠️ Requirements for Respondents Beach Energy is looking for providers with proven experience in major hazard industries. Submissions should highlight: Operational Experience: Case studies in remote or offshore environments. Safety & Compliance: Evidence of aviation certifications (e.g., CASA) and robust safety management systems. Delivery Models: Flexibility in service delivery (project-based, managed service, or hybrid). Innovation: Insights into emerging technologies that reduce high-risk activities like working at heights or confined space entry. 📍 Location & Submission This opportunity covers operations across Queensland, South Australia, Victoria, Western Australia, and New Zealand. Interested parties must submit their EOI via the ICN Gateway portal by June 11, 2026. Note: This is an information-gathering exercise and does not constitute a formal request for tender or guarantee a contract award.
