About SHARK4
SHARK4 is a tethered modular crawler for pressurised pipelines, submerged tunnels and confined industrial infrastructure. Its propulsion and guidance system moves through water-filled or difficult-access assets while maintaining live power, communications and control through the tether.
Payload modules support visual inspection, sonar, ultrasonic testing, three-dimensional mapping and other non-destructive evaluation methods. Pipein configures the vehicle, tether-management equipment and sensors around pipe diameter and inspection requirements. Recorded data supports condition assessment, maintenance planning and digital asset models.
