Rovco and Vaarst have merged under a new brand, Beam.global, aimed at providing the offshore wind industry with automation technologies for survey and subsea work across lifecycle stages.
Beam builds on both companies’ combined years of AI-driven operational expeience and focuses on R&D and partnerships to deliver innovations.
Rovco was founded by Brian Allen in 2016, with technology spin-off Vaarst launched by Allen in 2021. Allen will continue in the CEO role at Beam.
“Piecemeal policymaking, supply chain issues and the rising workforce shortage have created hurdles in the green energy transition and fuelled a continued reliance on oil and gas,” says Allen.
“It’s never been more important to find ways to cut costs and project timelines. This merger under a united brand makes Beam the only company in the world with a unique combination of subsea AI, computer vision, sonar and autonomous advanced robotics. Our mission is to deliver real world impact in the offshore wind industry by making it cost competitive with oil and gas, which is a pivotal step in ending the world’s dependence on fossil fuels.” |
