AUV mission tooling, delivery workflows, and field-proven experience.

With over 20 years of offshore survey and subsea experience, I specialise in the deployment, supervision, and technical management of autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs), with a strong focus on Kongsberg HUGIN platforms.

I build practical tools and workflows around real operations—mission planning, navigation review, QA, and export-ready deliverables—grounded in what actually works offshore.

Professional profile

I’ve led AUV operations globally across energy, telecom, environmental, and geophysical sectors, covering the full lifecycle from system integration and mission planning to offshore execution, fault diagnostics, upgrades, and team leadership.

I work closely with both manufacturers and clients, bridging engineering detail with operational reality. Whether on deck or in the office, I bring a hands-on, solutions-driven mindset to every mission.

Selected experience

Mission delivery & supervision

End-to-end responsibility for AUV operations, execution strategy, risk mitigation, and offshore supervision.

Navigation review & QA

Planned vs actual analysis, heading and timing checks, gap/overlap detection, and defensible outputs.

Operational tooling

Purpose-built desktop tools and QGIS plugins to reduce friction, speed up QA, and standardise deliverables.

Tools & applications

Mission Explorer

Desktop application for browsing missions, plotting tracks, reviewing logs, and exporting DXF/Excel outputs efficiently.

Mission Planner

QGIS-based mission planning tools for survey lines, turns, offsets, launch geometry, and clean MP export.

Utilities & automation

Batch processing, converters, QA scripts, and workflow glue built around real-world subsea operations.

Consulting & collaboration

I’m always open to new challenges, collaborations, and consulting roles in subsea technology, autonomy, and marine robotics.

Engagements range from short advisory roles to hands-on operational and tooling support.
