Impact Subsea’s flooded member detection system has been integrated onto Outland Technology’s newest and most powerful model ROV-3000, designed for ease of use and ruggedness.
The combined ROV-3000 and ISFMD system will be put to work by Offshore Drone Inspection Services for a wide variety of inspections in the Gulf of Mexico.
The new ROV-3000 pushes the limits of inspection class ROVs. Features include a 2,000 feet (600 meters) depth rating, auto depth, auto heading, auto pitch, and tool-free maintenance.
Scotland based Impact Subsea, designs, manufactures and supports a range of high-performance sensor solutions for underwater vehicles and associated applications.
The company reports the ISFMD system is the first of its kind to use digital acoustic detection instead of typical harmful gamma rays to inspect offshore platform members or subsea pipelines for flooding as a result of cracking, damage, corrosion, and/or other defects.
![“Our province has been shaped by the Atlantic Ocean. It can be extremely cold, extremely unforgiving. If it works here, it will work anywhere. The technology we [develop and] use here can be adapted to anywhere else in the world. We are adaptive, we're nimble, we're problem solvers. And at the end of the day, we are collaborative."
