Seahorse is a unique ROV within the UK which is dedicated to the requirements of research and development in the field of underwater technology. Available on a commercial basis to the industry, it also plays a major role within the University's extensive marine technology research programme. In this paper we briefly describe the system and mention some of its recent applications. Particular attention is paid to its use in precision sea-bed sediment sampling, a capability that was sought by the Institute to augment its environmental monitoring service which is used by several N. Sea operators.
