Innomar's parametric sub-bottom profilers offer advantages for many applications, such as offshore wind farms, route surveys, inshore and coastal surveys, dredging and harbours, pipeline and cable detection, marine archaeology, UXO surveys and more.
Although keeping the name, all Innomar SBP models are continiously improved. There have been different names for the Innomar SBP product line, like "SES-96", "SES-2000" or "Innomar SES". In 2021 the term "SES-xxx" has been removed completely.
A unique feature of Innomar's parametric SBPs is the possibility to work in extremely shallow waters, even less than one metre. Devices can be mobilized on vessels of opportunity or autonomous platforms at various scales.
Sub-bottom profiling in shallow waters is challenging for traditional systems and techniques due to wide-beam transducers, sidelobe patterns, ringing effects and high reverberation levels. The parametric technology used in our shallow-water models offers very narrow beams of less than 5 degrees with highly portable transducers and a high system bandwidth with sub-decimetre resolution.

The Innomar parametric sub-bottom profilers have been formerly also known as "SES-96", "SES-2000" or "Innomar SES" SBPs. Since 2020 new or improved models introduced do not use the term "SES-xx" in the model name any more.
Innomar's high-power models have larger transducers with increased source levels and operate with lower frequencies. Nevertheless, they provide narrow and focussed sound beams of less than 4 degrees which are electronically stabilised.
These systems can be applied in shallow areas where high seabed penetration is required or in deep waters for applications, such as oil and gas, reconnaissance and route surveys, scientific programs, deep sea drilling campaigns and others. The narrow beam and small acoustical footprint guarantees very high spatial resolution at greater depths and the beam stabilisation allows for operation even under harsh offshore conditions.
The medium-100 is available as a portable device for small boats and USV installations, whereas the other high-power models are typically hull mounted.

Innomar offers a wide range of sub-bottom profilers from which some models are especially designed for integration within remote-controlled or autonomous vehicles like USV, ASV, ROV or crawler.
