James Fisher Launches MultiROV

James Fisher Subsea Excavation (JFSE) has launched a new MultiROV system designed for excavation requirements in the offshore oil & gas and renewable energy sectors.

The MultiROV reduces the services required from a vessel as it needs no stabilising tuggers or clump weights, JFSE said. On-board thrusters allow movement and heading control which increase the operational window and productivity.

The system’s configuration means it can be deployed in water depths in excess of 3,000 metres.

“This is an exciting advancement in excavation technology. The MultiROV will bring real benefits to our clients with a range of challenging requirements. Automated heading and positioning controls greatly increase both productivity and the operational working limits,” Graham Murdoch, technical director at JFSE, said.

The MultiROV has been developed with ROV specialist Aleron Subsea and is exclusive worldwide to JFSE.
