ROV skids

A great deal of subsea work is done by, or alongside, an ROV. We design subsea tooling and intervention packages around that, skids and frames built to be deployed, powered and operated through an ROV, with the hot-stab interfaces, mounting and handling features the vehicle needs to do the job. The skid carries the function, clamping, cutting, sampling, monitoring or fluid transfer, while the ROV provides the eyes, hydraulic power and fine control, so the operation references the seabed and the tool, not the moving vessel above.

How we approach it

• Designed around the ROV – hot-stab receptacles, torque-tool buckets, fly-to-place handles and docking features matched to the intervention class working the site.
• Function-built – the skid integrates the tooling the task needs (clamps, cutters, pumps, sensors), powered and controlled through the ROV or an umbilical.
• Seabed-referenced – landed, levelled and reacted against the bottom so the work is stable and repeatable independent of vessel motion.

Scope described at capability level; tooling and interfaces engineered to the specific intervention and ROV spread.
