For 40 years or more, ROVs have been used for underwater tasks in oil & gas drilling, defense and ocean research. Over time, ROV technology has vastly improved in size and sophistication. While seemingly mundane, the cables that transmit power, communications, and data to and from the ROV have also become quite sophisticated. 


Since those early beginnings, a new emphasis on renewable energy resources has accelerated the use of ROVs for installing offshore wind turbines, and more recently wave and tidal (ocean) power. As coastal waters become more crowded, power companies are branching into deeper waters.

​​Safeguarding sustainability: the state of underwater seabed security

Jan 18, 2024 1:31:41 PM / by George Brandenburg posted in Renewable Energy, Subsea cables

Although it may not generate headlines in the same way as other matters of national security, underwater seabed security is of vital importance. Our access to energy and ability to communicate with others around the world depend on undersea cables. They may be hidden many miles below the ocean’s surface, but they are integral to our daily lives. And the sustainability movement will only increase the necessity of seabed security in the years to come.

 

The NordStream pipeline blasts of September 2022 have reignited awareness of the importance of underwater seabed security. Those blasts, which led to the loss of around 800 million cubic metres of gas, according to Russia's Gazprom, also resulted in the disturbance of long-buried toxic substances that threaten marine life. But although this incident has certainly left most stakeholders in agreement that something must be done to improve underwater seabed security, what this should be exactly is less certain.
