Selected Projects
The following examples illustrate how ROV-based underwater inspections can support structural assessments, maintenance planning and operational decision-making.
Quay Wall Condition Assessment – Port Facility
Objective: Determine the condition of a 180 m quay wall section and identify critical areas.
Scope: ROV-based video survey along the wall, targeted near-field inspection of joints and tie-rod zones, sonar support in low-visibility areas.
Outcome: Structured documentation of corrosion, spalling and geometry deviations as a basis for maintenance prioritisation and budgeting.
Cooling Water Intake – Industrial Plant
Objective: Verify flow conditions and blockage risk in a submerged cooling water intake.
Scope: ROV navigation in confined intake geometry, HD video documentation of sediment, deposits and structures, marking of potential restriction zones.
Outcome: Clear basis for cleaning measures and confirmation of safe operation without unplanned shutdown.
Pipeline Transition Zones – Municipal Utility
Objective: Assess mechanical stress areas at transitions between pipeline and structure.
Scope: Detailed visual inspection of joint regions, anchoring points and supports; sonar outline of covered sections.
Outcome: Support for structural assessment and documentation for internal and external stakeholders.
Basins & Tanks Under Safety Constraints
Objective: Internal review of basins and tanks without man entry.
Scope: ROV deployment under safety restrictions, visual and sonar capture of walls, inlets and penetrations.
Outcome: Reduced risk to personnel and well-documented condition of otherwise hard-to-access components.
