Reson was awarded a number of contracts in the offshore sector in 2008 due to the technical success of SeaBat 7125 multibeam sonar systems. The systems mounted on ROVs have been delivered to British contractors and marine survey equipment rental companies. All SeaBat 7125 systems provide a depth rating of up to 6,000 meters and featuring either a single (400kHz) or dual frequency (200kHz/400kHz). The dual frequency version allows for a change of frequency without replacing or reconfiguring the sonar and thus reduces the survey time.
