GROUPE GORGE (EPA:GOE) Exail Technologies wins order for deep-sea drone capable of operating at depths of 6,000 m
Transparency directive : regulatory news
Exail Technologies has been selected by the French Defense Procurement Agency (Direction Générale de l'Armement) to supply an autonomous deep-sea drone system, capable of operating at depths of 6,000 m, to the French Navy. This program represents a very significant amount for the company. It begins in October and is expected to last about two years.
Mastering the seabed has become a major issue for many state and economic actors to preserve their strategic interests. Countering threats to underwater infrastructures, such as communication cables, requires advanced technological capabilities and associated skills. The integrated deep-sea drone system proposed by Exail is positioned as an essential tool for the sovereignty of countries within their entire exclusive maritime zone.
This new drone will benefit from Exail's more than 40 years of experience in deep-sea operations and will carry a number of equipment designed and manufactured by the group, including a compact inertial navigation unit and acoustic sensors. Exail will also rely on the capabilities implemented for the design of the previous model, Ulyx, which has repeatedly demonstrated its ability to carry out missions at 6,000 meters depth autonomously.
This new order further strengthens the group's strong momentum initiated in the third quarter of 2024. It adds to the €60 million contract for K-Ster drones signed in July, as well as various commercial successes for the group's navigation systems. In addition to the significant increase in order intake, Exail has also set a goal for substantial revenue growth in the third quarter.
