Subsea engineering firm Ennsub has been awarded a multi-million pound contract to design and manufacture two ultra-deepwater workclass ROV launch and recovery systems for Rovop.
The equipment, which is estimated to take around six months to design and build, will be installed into the Ceona Amazon during the second half of this year and will commence operation in January 2015 when the vessel is due to come into service.
Westhill-based Ennsub’s contract comes after Rovop, also based at Westhill, secured a five-year deal with Ceona to provide hydraulic, work-class services on board the company’s fleet of new deepwater pipelay and construction vessels.
Rovop is deploying HD (heavy duty) and UHD (ultra-heavy duty) hydraulic work-class ROV systems, manufactured by FMC Technologies Schilling Robotics, from its growing fleet of ROVs to Ceona.
