Teledyne Marine: SeaBat T51-S Enhancing Deepwater Survey
Setting New Standards in High Resolution Subsea Mapping
Known for their innovative subsea imaging, and seismic technologies, Teledyne Marine redefines expectations in subsea high-resolution mapping with the introduction of the SeaBat T51-S. The newest advancement in the SeaBat T series, the T51-S maintains the core features of the T51 with enhanced mapping accuracy and resolution at new depths, strengthening its’ versatility for underwater deployment beyond vessel-based operations.
The SeaBat T51-S multibeam echosounder, S for ‘Subsea’, delivers a significant advancement in depth capability with a functional sonar depth rating of 6000m. Its pressure rated titanium housing allows the SeaBat T51-S to handle the extreme depths, further establishing its’ suitability for demanding subsea applications.
With both exceptional resolution and operational efficiency, users have the ability to complete 170-degree swath width at both 400 and 800 kHz, reducing the overall time required to survey. Its’ narrow receiver bandwidth of just 0.25-degree can accurately resolve objects as small as 0.3m, enhancing the resolution and providing reliable mapping. The data quality of the SeaBat T51-S produces clean data with minimal false detections which significantly decrease the time required for post-processing and manual corrections. These features make the SeaBat T51-S ideal for seabed mapping and inspection.
The SeaBat T51-S takes automation to the next level with advanced automated control. Its integrated ‘Tracker’ technology dynamically adjusts sonar settings in real time, streamlining operation, minimising dependence on specialised expertise, and enabling operators to concentrate on other crucial tasks.
The release of the SeaBat T5-S aligns perfectly with the 2025 World Hydrographers Day theme: “Seabed Mapping: Enabling Ocean Action.”
