Overview

SEALIEN ROBOTICS designs and sells work-class remotely operated vehicles (ROVs) and related subsea systems, including the 6,000-meter-rated Singularity work-class robot, the 3,000-meter-rated Phoenix cable-burial system and the 1,000-meter-rated Taurus heavy-duty robot. The company is also developing autonomous underwater vehicles and an AI-based decision system to coordinate multiple robots. Its commercial traction accelerated in 2025 after winning an order from a UAE telecommunications operator for a Phoenix 600 system valued at nearly US$10 million, which later expanded from one unit to three. By the end of July SEALIEN had signed several hundred million yuan in new contracts for complete deep-sea robot systems, expected to sign a similar amount soon, and reported a pipeline of about CNY 1 billion in potential contracts under negotiation. Customers now span the UK, the Netherlands, Norway, Brazil, Australia, the UAE, Egypt, Singapore, Malaysia and Indonesia. The company’s growing order book indicates a shift from trials to sales of complete machines for high-value offshore projects and an expanding overseas footprint.
