A submersible robot includes a re-configurable body transformable between at least a first configuration and a second configuration such that the re-configurable body, in the first configuration, has a hydrodynamic shape configured for efficient travel in a subsea environment, and such that the re-configurable body, in the second configuration, has a shape configured for performing a robotic task in the subsea environment.
