Eergy industry specialists join forces to bring a new integrated vessel and ROV package to market

 
Gardline Geosurvey Ltd and Neptune have entered into a partnership which will see Gardline’s DP2 multirole survey vessel MV Kommandor enhanced with the permanent installation of Neptune’s Explorer 06 100HP ROV.
 
Manned by staff from both companies, the vessel has also seen a dedicated ROV control area created on board and benefits from mid-ship moon pool capabilities. 
 
The ROV integration has strengthened the vessel’s full site investigation survey capabilities and allows it to offer enhanced features over standard site survey vessels, particularly with operations which require close approach work and extensive ROV operations. 
 
The multirole capabilities of the vessel also include the ability to undertake single pass site survey operations on the same cruise as ROV, geotechnical and environmental acquisition, offering cost efficiencies to the market.
As 2025 comes to a close, MTR explores trends for 2026 and the newest products and vessels in the maritime industry.
