Accelerating AI adoption for subsea energy

About us

Tide Breaker is where the subsea energy sector stops talking about AI potential and starts deploying tech that performs. Powered by Elementz, backed by Compass, guided by The Data Lab and supported by Opportunity North East (ONE), Tide Breaker is the AI accelerator created to smash through the barriers that have held subsea innovation back for years. This is where sharp tech start-ups meet serious Operators to tackle real industry problems and build solutions that go the distance beneath the surface. Forget blue-sky thinking. Tide Breaker is AI adoption at subsea depth and commercial speed. By aligning the most agile tech start-ups, future ready Operators, and trusted tech integrators inside one programme, Tide Breaker turns breakthrough into blueprint, delivering field-proven, platform ready AI that Operators can trust from day one. This is how you redefine subsea asset integrity. Not in theory. In production.

  • AI pilots are proving it can work but adoption still lags in subsea operations. Across the sector, promising AI solutions often stall after successful demonstrations. Who owns the tool? How will it integrate? Where’s the budget? Without answers, momentum fades and pilots become another experiment that never reaches the field. That’s where Tide Breaker comes in. Our AI accelerator brings operators, start-ups, and industry partners together to co-create solutions that fit the subsea workflows. We are building a governed pathway from technical validation to operational adoption, unlocking measurable value in the subsea environments. Hear directly from Camilla Leon on how Tide Breaker is putting this into practice. Tide Breaker is closing the commercial gap between technology pilot and industry adoption.

  • Finalist for Data Partnership Huge congrats to The Data Lab - Innovation Centre for the finalist position for Data Partnership of the Year at the British Data Awards for their work and support of our AI accelerator programme. For the first time, AI start-ups are working with real operational subsea data, inside a secure, trusted environment. From first-of-its-kind data access to field-ready solutions, Tide Breaker is demonstrating that AI can operate at subsea depths and commercial speeds. #Finalist #AI #DataPartnership

    Live from Lisbon 🎤 Today, 11th March, at the Deepwater Development Conference (MCEDD), Jason Brown shared how Tide Breaker is helping shift AI in subsea from isolated pilots to operational deployment. In our industry, the barrier to AI adoption isn’t data, compute, or even appetite for innovation. It’s the model. For too long, technology has been built in separation from the people who need to rely on it offshore. Tide Breaker is designed to change that by bringing operators and technology providers together to co-create solutions. With two start-ups, Fathom Group and VOLTQUANT, already working with subsea datasets and first commercial deployments targeted for later this year, Tide Breaker is well underway. The programme is building a connected Blue Digital Ecosystem where intelligence is shared, validated and strengthened across portfolios, rather than developed in isolation. The discussions in the room today confirmed something we strongly believe - operators want to be part of building the solutions they will ultimately use.

    Australia, we’re back 🌏 Sue Stevens and Ian Smith will be representing Elementz at the EXA - Energy Exchange Australia Conference. With a key customer base in Australia, maintaining close, personal connections is vital. Distance has never been a barrier for us, and we communicate regularly online, but it would be wonderful to meet face-to-face. 📍 Find us at Stand D28a alongside Aize, Perth Convention and Exhibition Centre. We’re excited to reconnect with long-standing clients and introduce our software to new audiences. Drop by to discover Integrity Elementz and how it can streamline your subsea asset integrity data, see a live demo of the software, and explore our latest initiative, Tide Breaker. Let’s continue shaping the future of the blue digital ecosystem together! See you in Perth 👋 #Australia #ClientRelationship #Exhibiting #Software #Subsea #AssetIntegrity

    We’re underway! Yesterday, we officially kicked off the next stage of Tide Breaker with Cohort One, Fathom Group and VOLTQUANT This next phase is Development & Validation running until June, and it is the engine room of the programme. It is where ideas are sharpened into tools that can perform in the field. Over the coming months, our start-ups will build and refine their solutions inside the sandbox environment, working with real data, real infrastructure and real constraints. At the same time, Operators will validate those solutions under live-like conditions, ensuring what is developed is operationally fit. This is what Tide Breaker is all about. Structured progress > Measurable performance > Commercial pace. AI shaped by operational need and tested for deployment. Now the real build begins. #TideBreaker #SubseaInnovation #AIAdoption #BuiltForDeployment Elementz

    First cohort confirmed ✅ Tide Breaker has selected its first two start-ups to enter the programme, marking the start of AI that’s built with Operators in mind, not around them. Welcome to Fathom Group and VOLTQUANT. Two North East businesses with one shared goal of turning AI potential into subsea solutions that can stand up in the field. This is co-creation at commercial speed, backed by real scenario data, challenges and a governed path to deployment. It is where start-ups and global Operators are building the Blue Digital Ecosystem, together. 👉 The tide has broken.

    Tide Breaker takes the stage at Subsea Expo! Huge thanks to Michael Topp at Elementz for showing how Tide Breaker is turning Subsea Digitalisation into real-world impact. By flipping the model from: Build → Demonstrate → Deploy to: Participate → Validate → Integrate Stakeholders become co-creators, not spectators. Ambition turns into adoption. Adoption becomes advantage. The value is co-created, not handed down. The Blue Digital Ecosystem isn’t a distant vision. It’s what happens when the industry works together to replace fragmentation - with Tide Breaker leading the way! We are redefining subsea asset integrity, not in theory, but in production. This is how AI moves from innovation to deployment. Learn more: tidebreaker.digital #SubseaExpo #AI #SubseaTech #Innovation #Aberdeen Global Underwater Hub

  • Grow stronger with every inspection The subsea sector has decades of data behind it, but the real challenge has always been connecting it, learning from it and applying that intelligence across an entire asset portfolio. The Learning System is designed to integrate continuous learning into subsea operations, identifying patterns, surfacing emerging failure modes, and ensuring that every inspection informs the next. This is how Operators move from isolated fixes to long-term, portfolio-wide improvement. And it’s just one of the core themes, set by Operators, we’re hoping to tackle in the first Tide Breaker cohort. If you’re ready to scale real learning across the subsea sector, we should talk.

  • Bring on the Digital Engineer Subsea engineers are carrying a heavy load of planning, scope writing and reporting, and it’s slowing down progress across the entire integrity lifecycle. Designed to take that pressure off by automating the labour-intensive parts of the job and delivering accurate, consistent outputs that slot straight into existing workflows. From campaign planning to standardised reporting, this theme focuses on tools that free engineers to spend more time on critical thinking and less admin. If your AI can streamline engineering delivery and raise the quality bar, Tide Breaker is where it moves from capability to deployment. Think your tech fits this challenge?
