Skyports Drone Services

From maritime deliveries to medical logistics, railway inspections to waterway monitoring, we're using drones to solve challenges for a spectrum of critical industries and services. Whether you've already implemented drone services in your business or you're considering the value it would add, we're curious: Which drone use case is the most compelling to you? Add your comments to tell us more about the role drones can play in your industry. #drones #dronedeliveries #droneinspection

This week we completed another great demonstration of our drone capabilities for the Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore (MPA), this time showcasing maritime drone use cases for students during the Singapore Geospatial Festival. Alongside our partner OneSky, it was a great opportunity to share insights into how, as drone operators, Skyports is leveraging geospatial technologies to shape the future of maritime operations and inspire the next generation of innovators. We've been working with the MPA in Singapore for several years to highlight how drone services can be integrated into routine and emergency procedures for Singapore's maritime sector to improve safety and access and reduce operational emissions.

The drone industry is moving fast—and I love being at the forefront of where this technology is making the biggest impact. In just the last 12 months, drones have evolved from exciting technology to essential tools across industries worldwide. I’ve witnessed drones delivering vital medicines to remote communities in Africa firsthand, and I’ve led teams deploying drones to inspect the critical infrastructure we rely on every day in the UK. At Skyports, we’re not just keeping pace with this fast-moving industry; we’re leading it. We’re focused on pushing the boundaries of drone technology to solve real-world problems, tackle complex missions, and bring drone solutions to places where they can have the greatest impact. As drone technology evolves, so does its potential. It’s clear that drones are here to stay, transforming industries, saving lives, and changing how we approach challenges globally. The future of drones is about impact, not just innovation.

Our drone services are really taking off. Can you guess the location of any of these recent operations? 🌏 Pyka | RigiTech | Speedbird Aero #droneservices #UAV #drones

Today we're announcing the next phase of Project Kingfisher, our drone water monitoring trials with NWG (Northumbrian Water Group), Makutu, and RS Hydro. Named for the way our aircraft hover and dip in and out of the water like a Kingfisher to collect water samples, Project Kingfisher aims demonstrate how drones can be used to monitor the health of UK waters. We're deploying the all-electric Speedbird Aero DLV-2, which has been equipped with a variety of sensors which are lowered into sample locations by winch. From there, we're able to test water quality and provide real time data to Northumbrian Water. Cheska P. Rojas, Project Kingfisher lead at Skyports Drone Services, said: “Water quality monitoring is a really compelling drone inspection use case, which we’re excited to be developing through Project Kingfisher. The latest phase of trials build on learnings gathered earlier in the year and is an important step towards scaling these services and eventually rolling them out in other parts of the UK."

Congratulations to our aircraft partner Pyka on securing $40M in its Series B funding round. We look forward to seeing how this significant injection of capital will support the development and commercialisation of Pyka's world class Pelican Cargo and Pelican Spray aircraft. We've been flying Pelican Cargo, the world's first large-scale autonomous electric cargo aircraft, capable of heavy-payload, long-range operations, since early 2023, and we're conducting ongoing trials and test flights to demonstrate how this aircraft can support the transport of cargo for logistics, humanitarian and marine use cases. #droneservices #heavylift #drones #UAV

We had the pleasure of hosting the Singapore Transport Safety Investigation Bureau (TSIB) at our Asia-Pacific HQ in Singapore for an insightful session with our remote drone pilots. This visit, where we showcased our drone delivery and inspection use cases across Singapore and globally was organised as part of TSIB's outreach program to the UAS community in Singapore to create awareness on how thorough investigations can drive safety improvements in our industry. Learnings from live operations and sharing best practices amongst the drone community supports our efforts to continuously enhance safety standards and create a safer operational environment for all. A big thank you again to the TSIB team for dropping by! #drones #safety #UAS #APAC #droneservices

As we expand our operations in the US, we're looking to bring on a new Flight Ops Team Leader. This is an excellent opportunity for someone looking to join a team in its accelerated growth phase, with some very exciting projects on the horizon.
