Cellula Divests Its Seafloor Drill Division

Cellula Robotics Ltd. announces the acquisition of its Seafloor Drill Division by a confidential client.

The sale, completed on September 2, 2022, will facilitate Cellula’s focus on development of proven, trusted autonomy as it brings its industry leading fuel cell powered, long range AUVs, Solus-LR and -XR to market. The investment will also support the ongoing development of Imotus-S, Cellula’s latest AUV innovation for vessel signature measurement.

“We are thrilled to complete this milestone in Cellula’s history” said Eric Jackson, President at Cellula, “with our recent focus on AUVs, the opportunity presented itself at a key time. We look forward to pivoting our efforts on AUV development and innovation.”

Previous seafloor drill projects under the Cellula brand included ROVDrill & ROVDrill MkII for Canyon Offshore, subsystems for the Forum M80 and BGS RD2. Cellula’s most recent drill developments were the CRD100 drills supplied to Fukada and JAMSTEC in Japan. Cellula will continue to support our valued CRD100 clients around the world.
