Register looking at unmanned systems for inspection of large storage tanks onboard ships. This work will 

address the key technical challenges experienced when flying unmanned systems inside tanks and will 

demonstrate highly automated bespoke systems for scanning, storage and visualisation of data collected within 

tanks. This innovation has a number of key benefits including savings to ship owners, reduced cost of shipping 

oil and gas internationally, improved safety for inspectors and environmental benefits through closer 

monitoring and storage of oil and gas containers.</ns2:abstractText></ns2:project>
