Offshore California is on the forefront of integrating ROV technology with conventional diving operations to achieve a more cost-effective result. This leadership is driven by the high cost of conventional divers on the West Coast, as well as the fast rate that water depth increases offshore. In 1983, Oceaneering performed a variety of typical underwater projects including platform, pipeline and subsea wellhead inspection, maintenance and repair. Each job utilized ROVs to their maximum capabilities by performing all inspections and simple work tasks as engineered during the project planning. Navigation positioning was also integrated with the total operation. This paper will cover the details of each project and design interface considerations.
