... Abstract Historically, subsea vehicles were controlled by communications through a tether, which presents several challenges including a limited range of motion, deployment and retrieval, cost and logistics, and environmental impact. These challenges inspired the development of a new generation...

... Abstract This work presents an energy harvesting system that can be integrated into most autonomous underwater vehicles (AUV), allowing it to operate for significantly longer periods of time, potentially indefinitely. This wave-power charging capability is achieved by integrating a retractable...

...). There is a rapid emergence of technical solutions of vehicles as a sensor platform with enhanced robotics and autonomy. These solutions offer the opportunity to increase the frequency of inspection campaigns while reducing exposure to risk, CO 2 emissions and offers opportunities to reduce inspection costs...

... During living lab execution of experiments, several input factors could be controlled, offering opportunities to validate performance. This enabled confidence to be gained in the capability of the vehicle and mitigated for the reduction in input factors available during testing on operational...

... Abstract Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) have shown promise to disrupt Inspection, Maintenance, and Repair (IMR) activities typically performed by Remotely Operated Vehicles (ROVs) tethered to large, expensive vessels on the surface. There are many concepts and projects within oil and gas...

... Abstract Emerging inspection technologies, tools and platforms such as unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), remotely operated vehicles (ROVs), robotic crawlers, and wearable/handheld devices are creating actionable data to help enable more informed decision making and improve process efficiency...

... Abstract Inspection Repair and Maintenance (IRM) services have traditionally in the subsea environment been vessel based relying on remotely operated vehicles (ROV) or Diver operations. The global industry challenge to reduce costs has driven incremental savings; increasing inspection intervals...

... Inspection and intervention of subsea wells and other assets currently require deployment of manned inspection, maintenance, and repair (IMR) vessels and remotely operated vehicles (ROVs). Recent advances in robotics and automation can now be combined into new, semi-autonomous subsea vehicles...
