Articles based on experience from more than 70 projects

Through our project and expertise-based articles, we demonstrate how it is possible to perform critical safety services and maintenance in the demanding splash zone. We utilize robots and tools based on field-proven technology which we have developed and manufactured during the last 20 years. These tools are continuously improved and modified to enable us to solve new, unique tasks and projects. We ensure safe execution in the Splash Zone by remote operations from a control unit on deck without the need for divers or ROV’s in the water.

To prepare our robots and tools for operation in the Splash Zone, we use our experienced climbers with a unique expertise in rigging and lifting to securely mount the equipment to the offshore installation. The robots and tools are mounted above water, and then safely guided into the water for operation.
