AML Oceanographic
Specializes in the design and manufacture of oceanographic and environmental sensors, including CTDs and turbidity sensors.
AML Oceanographic designs and manufactures ocean-sensing solutions for marine and subsea work, with its efforts concentrated on sensors, instrumentation and deployment systems. The company serves customers on all seven continents and supports a wide range of oceanographic, hydrographic, environmental, scientific and related marine survey applications. Its offering spans standalone sensors, instrument platforms, and the systems used to deploy those instruments from vessels and uncrewed platforms, so the business reaches well beyond a single product category. A central part of the work involves building hydrographic and oceanographic equipment that helps customers collect and measure water data with less downtime and less dependence on factory recalibration. Field-swappable sensors stand out as a distinctive feature of that equipment, since they let users move sensors between instruments as needed. The company supports different vessel and platform types, among them larger oceanographic vessels, smaller survey launches, autonomous platforms and uncrewed surface vessels. Its business therefore covers not only the manufacture of hardware but the practical work of getting instruments deployed in the field. Measurement capabilities include sound velocity, conductivity and temperature, dissolved oxygen, depth or pressure, turbidity, temperature and fluorometry. Instrumentation families include CTDs, multiparameter sondes and moving vessel profiler systems. Beyond the instruments themselves, AML offers custom engineering, sensor mounting for direct integration, and post-sale support services, and in Europe it provides calibration and repair services through AML Europe. Distinctive elements of the business include its experience in high-performance hydrographic and oceanographic equipment, its pioneering role in time-of-flight sound velocity, and its focus on keeping equipment flexible and easy to service. Its products and systems work as tools for customers who need reliable ocean sensing, practical deployment and ongoing support across diverse marine and research markets, whether the job calls for a single sensor, a full instrument platform, or the means of putting that instrument into the water from a survey launch or an uncrewed vessel.
