In response to the growing demand from various sectors, including the military, security forces, and law enforcement, we've expanded our portfolio of marine magnets to include Tactical editions for all our handheld sizes. 

A new version of our popular diving magnet, the Willy 500, has joined the Blumags family. Crafted from the same stainless steel and powerful neodymium as all our other magnets, the Tactical Willy 500 maintains the high standards that Blumags represents. What sets the Tactical edition apart is its sleek, matte black coating, which significantly reduces the reflectivity. Because some users, such as police, special forces or military, may not want to attract more attention than necessary.

We recently sent our latest innovation, the ROV magnet named Moby, out for field trials with our development partner DeepOcean in the Balder field on the Norwegian Continental Shelf. The result was overwhelmingly positive, as the magnet proved to be easy to operate yet robust and able to stay in place even when pulled with full thruster force in all directions.

Blumags unveils Moby, a groundbreaking magnet for ROV applications with a holding force of up to 3200 kg. Designed as a robust and lightweight solution, Moby eliminates the need for complicated conservation procedures and offers modularity for easy customization. DeepOcean has recently placed the first order for Moby, and the magnet has been delivered to their offshore supply base in Haugesund, Norway, eagerly awaiting deployment for an upcoming offshore campaign.

Blumags have designed and delivered tailored magnets with extended lifetime for Volue's mooring line monitoring system. The system will be deployed on the mooring lines of NOV APL's turret for the Barossa FPSO. We were able to tweak our design to meet the specific requirements through enhanced metal alloys, improved assembly design and custom-made top plate interface.
