“We are extremely proud to have purchased this great asset. The Seaeye Leopard provides us with an extremely capable, multi-purpose work-class ROV, which is the perfect platform to support our immediate customer needs and future campaigns,” said Simon Miller, General Manager at Rovco.

According to Rovco, Seaeye Leopard’s design, along with a compact Launch and Recovery spread, allows for fast mobilization and demobilization to and from a wider range of vessels without the need for extensive modifications to the deck to support the setup.

The all-electric design combined with these typically smaller host vessels helps reduce project CO2 emissions and lowers the overall project cost, the company concluded.
