OUR COMPANY
Who we are
We are constantly seeking new technological advancements and equipment to be suitable for our Micro and Mini ROV vehicles. Since a lot of the solutions available in the market today require big vehicles, we develop technical solutions and build our tools in-house to solve the challenges our clients experience.
We take pride in not declining our clients due to the size or weight of our equipment presents a challenge to carry out the project.
To deliver the best solutions within the market, we need the best equipment and the best people. It’s the combination of these factors that makes Stinger Technology one of the leading companies within the subsea market. We have the competency, the experience, the fantasy, and the courage to find the best solutions at any given time. We have the best equipment within our segment and employees who know how to handle it, whether the task be great or small.
This is how we ensure that we deliver smart, safe and sustainable subsea solutions.

Our history
Stinger Technology AS is a privately owned technology company established by Bjarte Langeland in 2003. From the very start, Stinger Technology has been a pioneer in technology development, design, and usage of small, light and remotely operated subsea vehicles on the Norwegian Continental Shelf. The technology, the ROVs and the equipment are developed, produced, and assembled in Stavanger. The first resident ROV with 24/7 operation was delivered in 2012.
Timeline
Tau Autonomy Center
Stinger Technology AS is one of eight owners and contributors to Tau Autonomy Center (TAC) which was established in 2020 to provide the industry with a suitable location for training, testing and qualifying of autonomous drones.
The centre is suitable for both aerial and subsea drones and offers good facilities, surroundings, and conditions for testing and qualifying all types of remotely controlled technology.
Stinger utilises TAC to test and qualify both our in-house developed technology and our client’s subsea equipment. By testing our systems and solutions at TAC we ensure that we’re always delivering products of the highest standards focusing on quality, safety, and environment.
TAC Challenge
Stinger Technology is proud to host the TAC Challenge, one of Europe`s largest AUV competitions for university teams.
TAC Challenge is an annual subsea and aerial drone competition for university students from all over the world. The competition is a unique arena for testing new ideas whilst also executing community engagement by actively contributing to innovative technology development.
The competition takes place at Tau Autonomy Center in June each year and runs for five action-filled days. During these days the teams will get the opportunity to test their equipment on real-life challenges, challenge each other’s knowledge, and network with other students and organisations with similar interests to their own. During the competition, a panel of judges from leading industry companies serves as jury and mentors to guide the students through the process and missions.
TAC Challenge 2024 will host 180 participants from different parts of the world! Stinger holds the sole responsibility for the entire event and the students will have to solve missions ranging from subsea docking, pipeline inspection, detection, intervention and manipulation, navigation and positioning, wireless communication and charging, and much more.
