MVP300 Underway Profiler

The MVP300 is the largest available system, reaching depths of 3700 metres. Designed for larger vessels and bigger projects, simply put, this versatile tool cuts through the hassle. Operating in conditions up to sea state 7, the MVP300 maximizes efficiency without sacrificing research time. This particular model can obtain depths of 740m while cruising at a survey speed of eight knots. With up to thirteen data collection parameters mounted on the tow body, surveyors may gather essential water column data seamlessly while underway.

Sabrina Speich - Professor of Physical Oceanography and Climate Sciences


"Until now, small-scale, rapidly changing dynamic ocean structures have been extremely difficult to observe in three dimensions and in real time. The MVP300 is a game-changer: it allows us to profile the ocean down to the abyss while the ship is underway, capturing physical, chemical and biological data at unprecedented resolution. With it, we can finally map how these fleeting features work, and better understand their role in shaping the climate system."

The Geological Survey of Sweden

Björn Bergman - Head of Marine Operations and Technology


"The use of an MVP has increased our efficiency during survey operations a lot compared to traditional profiling methods. Our MVP30-350 has proven itself to be fully operationally reliable and was easy to install and integrate within our survey setup. The high quality data from the sensors has been crucial in succeeding with our surveys in the most difficult conditions of the Baltic ocean."

Gardline Limited

Emilie Hall - Project Engineer


"We have been utilising our AML MVP 30-350 systems on offshore wind farm projects for the last two years where we have found the systems to be robust and reliable, delivering accurate profiles multiple times a day. The ability to perform real-time underway SV profiles from a fully independent system significantly increases productivity and survey efficiency. In addition to this, the technical support we have received to date has been excellent."

University of Alaska Fairbanks

Tyler Hennon - Research Assistant Professor


"We were impressed with the overall reliability of this system and the quality of the data, so much so that we are actually in the midst of developing a proposal to acquire our own MVP 30-350. Additionally, we thank AML for their expert on-site assistance with installation and training on the use of the MVP 30-350 during the mobilization period. Darrell’s technical knowledge and advice gave us confidence that we would be able to successfully operate the MVP 30-350."
