Neomare

Neomare AS is a Norwegian subsea imaging company that acquires ultra-high-resolution (UHR) 3D data of the seabed and the geology beneath it. The company combines current acquisition technology and survey techniques with what it describes as a flexible, scalable and efficient acquisition platform, positioning its output for near-field development and site characterisation work in the offshore energy value chain.

The offering is organised around four application areas. Infrastructure Led Exploration (ILX) targets operators seeking to maximise recovery from existing fields, using geophysically targeted, compact 3D or 4D high-resolution acquisition to support ongoing development and production. The carbon storage offering supplies high-resolution data to assess the suitability and integrity of proposed storage sites and to run repeatable surveys that monitor injection once a site is proven. For offshore wind, the company acquires UHR 3D data early in site development as an alternative to sparse 2D grids, with the stated aim of improving hazard detection, avoiding reacquisition of 2D data and targeting geotechnical investigations. A fourth area, deep sea minerals, applies the same non-invasive acquisition approach to locating near-surface mineral deposits.

The company operates modular systems and asset-light operations, citing reduced environmental impact, lower carbon footprint and operational efficiency alongside a focus on QHSE. Its ESG framing references UN sustainability goals applied to energy-transition activities.

Founding story

Neomare was founded to redefine high-definition seismic data. According to the company, the solutions were recommended and inspired by surveys and techniques used at a major energy company, and a group of former colleagues set out to develop those techniques into a commercially viable industry offering.

Business model

Neomare sells subsea survey acquisition services and the resulting high-resolution geophysical data to energy operators and offshore developers, deploying modular, asset-light survey systems configured to specific customer requirements across its market segments.

Traction

Directory listings place total funding in the EUR 100K-500K range and describe the company as startup-sized; the company reports an experienced team spanning geophysics, geoscience, marine operations, business development and health and safety, supported by an advisory board drawn from related industries.
