Neptune Robotics
"A World Class Automated Biofouling Management System"
Provider of robotic (ROV) ship hull cleaning and inspection services using cavitation technology for biofouling management across 60+ ports.
Neptune Robotics provides robotic underwater hull cleaning, hull inspection, and biofouling management services for the maritime shipping industry, with the stated goal of reducing vessel fuel consumption and carbon emissions toward net-zero targets. Headquartered in Singapore with an additional office in Shenzhen, China, the company operates remotely operated vehicles (ROVs) that clean and inspect ship hulls in water at berths and anchorages, delivering a robotics-as-a-service model rather than selling hardware. Its core cleaning technology uses cavitation to remove biofouling while protecting the hull's antifouling coating, and the company markets capabilities including above-water cleaning, operation in low-visibility (muddy) water, and cleaning in strong currents. Service lines include Robotic Hull Cleaning, Robotic Hull Inspection, Propeller and Niche Area cleaning and polishing, the Neptune Annual Care (NAC) maintenance program, and Neptune Coating Care (NCC).
For each job the company provides an inspection preview report within hours and comprehensive online reports covering fouling and coating analysis plus fuel and carbon-savings traceability, accessible through a fleet-wide management dashboard. Neptune states coverage at more than 60 ports across Asia and other regions and offers services compliant with Australian (AMSA) and New Zealand (MPI) biosecurity requirements. The company markets potential annual fleet fuel savings of 9-18 percent and in 2026 announced a US$12 million investment in a new Singapore factory to expand its autonomous hull-cleaning capacity.
