HPR Secures Taiwan Offshore Wind Deal After High-Current ROV Trials

Aberdeen-based High Performance Robotics (HPR) has secured its first commercial contract in Taiwan, deploying its subsea robotic technology and personnel to support IOG on an offshore wind project.

The contract follows a self-funded trial program conducted earlier in 2026 to demonstrate the company's remotely operated vehicle (ROV) technology in high-current conditions that have historically posed challenges for subsea inspections.

HPR initially tested its systems at FloWave in Edinburgh before conducting offshore trials in Taiwan in March, demonstrating inspection speeds significantly faster than the existing rate on the project.

The results led to HPR being appointed as an additional contractor to help accelerate the inspection program.
