01Situation
The challenge
Depth and current made diver inspection inefficient for a long route that had to be covered consistently.
The route was flown in defined passes with recorded video and position references, so findings can be relocated during any follow-up intervention.
02Scope
Scope of work executed
- ROV survey of structure and adjacent seabed
- Cable route inspection with position references
- Sonar coverage in reduced visibility
- Condition reporting for maintenance planning
03Execution
Equipment, safety and reporting
Equipment deployed
- Inspection-class ROV with camera and lighting
- Sonar for low-visibility sections
- PLACEHOLDER — vessel arrangement per campaign
Safety measures
- No diver exposure required for the survey
- Launch and recovery procedures agreed with the vessel
Reporting delivered
- Annotated inspection video
- Still image set
- Route condition report
