The annual inspection covered subsea production systems and Xmas trees, including integrity checks, assessment of anode status, and seabed condition surveys. In addition, extended survey work was undertaken to support preparations for the upcoming decommissioning campaign.

“Using Reach Remote 1 allowed us to perform the inspection safely and efficiently, while also demonstrating the potential of unmanned offshore operations. It is very rewarding to see this milestone achieved together with TotalEnergies,” said Nick Herrington, Project Manager at Reach Subsea.
