ROV Net & Infrastructure Inspection

Faster inspections. Less diver time. Better records. We deploy portable inspection-class ROVs to survey net pens, moorings, cage structures, hulls and intakes—capturing HD/4K video, laser-scaled imagery, and optional sonar for low-viz work. Crews can spot holes, fouling, or chafe daily without putting a diver in the water, then plan targeted fixes.

What we deliver

  • Fit-for-site hardware plan (current, depth, visibility) and pilot day.
  • Navigation & sensors: station-hold against current; optional USBL/DVL positioning and imaging sonar for murky pens.
  • Repeatable workflow: cage sweeps, perimeter & footrope passes, stanchion & mooring checks, annotated video logs.
  • Training & SOPs: boat-side checkout, reporting template, and media archiving.

Why it works

  • Daily net checks reduce escapes and catch damage early (holes, abrasion, entanglement risks).
  • Cuts diver exposure & cost for routine visuals—use divers when you already know where to work.
  • Proven across aquaculture for net & mooring inspections by multiple platforms .

Typical inspection set

  • Net pen survey: inner/outer net, footrope, feed ring, tension points, cage collar; laser-scaled stills of defects.
  • Moorings & hardware: shackles, chains, anchors, bridle contact points.
  • Low-viz add-ons: multibeam imaging sonar for turbid sites; map & breadcrumb trail via USBL/DVL.

How a rollout works

  1. Site review (currents, depth, viz) → select platform & sensors.
  2. Dockside fit-up → pilot training, mission plan, naming and media workflow.
  3. Sea trial → full cage sweep + mooring spot-checks, adjust camera/sonar settings.
  4. SOP handoff → cadence (daily/weekly), defect tagging, video archive structure.

FAQs

Will ROVs replace divers?
No—ROVs reduce routine dive hours and make dives more targeted. You still use divers for repairs and complex tasks; ROVs de-risk frequent visuals.

How do you handle current and poor visibility?
Inspection-class ROVs offer station-hold/stabilization, and we can add USBL/DVL for position tracking and imaging sonar to “see” structure in turbid water.
