BMTI® combines materials technology and design experience to manufacture highly sophisticated ROV (Remotely Operated Vehicle) and AUV (Autonomous Underwater Vehicle) buoyancy modules.

BMTI® offers the lowest pure syntactic foam densities on the market for depths from 1 000 to 12 000 m, for maximum vehicle buoyancy.

BMTI® also has extensive experience in positioning and incorporation of metal inserts, in protective shells and coatings.

BMTI® can provide both standard blocks (large size means limited bonding) or finished buoyancy modules.

ROV / AUV / RESIDENT VEHICLE / TRENCHER manufacturing process

BMTI® offers a state-of-the-art ROV buoyancy manufacturing process to ensure the best possible quality.

We select the best foam grade for you on the basis of your specifications (depth rating and upthrust are generally required). We are different from other buoyancy providers because we have the largest range of off-the-shelf blocks, densities and grades, so we can quickly handle any application.

Buoyancy assemblies are then machined to the exact shape, before being finished with our own-formulation protective PUR and painting, including the positioning of inserts for which we offer premium strengths.

We carry out high-standard quality controls and testing throughout the manufacturing process, so as to guarantee the best product performance.

ROV/AUV/RESIDENT VEHICLE/TRENCHER buoyancy repair

BMTI® offers a repair and refurbishment service for damaged subsea buoyancy modules. We are experienced in the repair of complete module breakages or the replacement of missing sections, ensuring you get maximum usage from your subsea buoyancy assets by extending their lifespan.

BMTI® repair kits are available with procedures for repairing thin, large damages for both syntactic foam from 1000m to 6000m and finishing (anti-shock and paint coating).
