Equipment for river and maritime operations.

Thalweg specifies and supplies the instruments that produce navigation data, and ships them from the United States. Purchase and sale of hydrographic equipment is part of the company’s recorded purpose.

Specified for the operation, not for a catalogue.

We are not tied to a single manufacturer. Each instrument is chosen for the vessel, the waterway and the data the operation needs — and for whether it will keep reporting where there is no mobile coverage and no workshop nearby.

  • Satellite tracking

    Self-powered position reporting units for vessels, convoys and unmanned assets, with their airtime plans and activation.

  • Echo sounders

    Single-beam sounding equipment for depth profiles and navigable-channel work, on rivers and in coastal waters.

  • Sensors

    Level, draft, fuel and environmental sensors that report alongside position.

  • Field instrumentation

    Positioning, survey and support instruments for crews working on the water.

  • Installation materials

    Mounts, cabling, enclosures and spares, so an installation is not held up by a missing part.

  • Something not on this list?

    Tell us what the operation has to measure and report, and we will specify the instrument that meets it.

From Miami, with the paperwork done properly.

  1. Specification

    We write down what the operation needs to measure and report, and which instrument meets it.

  2. Quotation and purchase

    Quotation in writing from the company’s Miami office, with delivery terms and lead time stated.

  3. Shipment

    Shipped to the buyer’s freight forwarder or agent; the buyer imports the goods in its own name.

  4. Commissioning

    Installation and commissioning are carried out by the operator or its local contractor, with our written procedure.

Equipment is supplied on order. No manufacturer is presented here as a distributor or partner: the brand quoted for each job is the one that fits it.

Tell us what your operation needs to know.

Write to [email protected] with the vessels, the waterway and the decision you are trying to make, and we will answer with what the software and the instruments can cover.
