IXAR Genesis
The modular, adaptable inspection workhorse
Designed to perform where visibility is low and underwater conditions are harsh, our IXAR Genesis ROV combines endurance, precision, and advanced technology in a single platform. Equipped with sonar compatibility, DVL-enabled underwater positioning, and continuous AC-powered operation for extended missions, it delivers reliable performance in demanding environments. Its rugged construction is built to withstand challenging industrial conditions, while the integrated Optical Window enhances visual clarity in turbid water, enabling accurate and efficient inspection of critical underwater infrastructure.

Case Studies Featuring IXAR Genesis
Cooling Tower Sump Inspection
Cooling tower sumps are confined underwater environments where conventional inspection methods often involve significant safety risks and operational challenges. Draining sumps causes massive refinery downtime costing millions, while manual diver entry is hazardous due to chemical presence and active suction.
Eddy Current Test Underwater
Subsea weld joint inspection on offshore platforms requires detecting micro-cracks beneath painted or corroded coatings without scraping off protective coatings.
ETP Facility Inspected Using ROV
Effluent Treatment Plants (ETP) contain corrosive acids, toxic industrial sludge, and hazardous chemical sumps where human diving is strictly prohibited.
Port Inspection
Commercial port quay walls and shipping berths undergo constant wave impact and vessel berthing forces. Diver checks interrupt vessel cargo operations.
