Downtime of a subsea project can be very expensive, depending on how long the operation’s standstill takes. Field Service’s main goal is to help clients prevent downtime or solve it as quickly as possible. This saves a lot of time - and money.

USVs and AUVs in the ROV Market: Automation on water

The drive for more fuel-efficient, sustainable solutions, along with technological improvements, is creating a growing demand for unmanned marine vehicles in many applications. In addition to the more common remotely operated vehicles (ROVs), many of these missions are being carried out by uncrewed surface vehicles (USVs) or autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs). Often, an ROV works in conjunction with a USV.

The Rise of Electrical ROVs: Benefits and challenges in development

The global trend toward a more sustainable and socially responsible world has accelerated the transition to renewable energy in the ROV industry. Though some smaller electric ROVs have become more commonplace in recent years, larger work-class ROVs have historically relied on hydraulics to power their operations. As a result of the drive for sustainability, however, OEMs are beginning to develop fully electric work-class ROVs, or eWROVs.

Scarce metals and minerals that we will desperately need in the future lie at the bottom of the ocean for us to pick. Therefore, many countries are looking into the possibilities of deep sea mining: harvesting these raw materials at depths of kilometers. An important role is reserved for ROVs and ROV Cables.

Blue Nodules: harvesting at 5.5km depth

The EU aims to reduce dependency on imports of raw materials. ROVs and ROV Cables play an important role in harvesting such materials in European waters.

For a cutting-edge EU Research Project, DeRegt was asked to join an EU-funded consortium of 14 companies. Industry, research institutes and service companies across seven different countries joined forces.

How to prevent dangerous overheating in subsea cables

Subsea cables are stored on land and (mainly) used in water. That means the temperature difference between deploying and retrieving can be high. Therefore, controlling the cable's temperature in-field is often a challenge.

Three advantages of Early Supplier Involvement

Why is it important to involve your cable supplier early in developing your new product or equipment? At DeRegt, we often see customers who have succeeded in developing an excellent Sonar or ROV system but forget to think of the cables involved or underestimate their complexity.

Subsea Cable Testing and 4 other types of verification: the Design Compliance Matrix

Verifying the required specifications is perhaps the most crucial part of designing a naval subsea cable. After all, as an engineer, you must be able to prove that the cable works as it is supposed to. There are five different ways of verification, one of which is subsea cable testing.

At DeRegt, we use a Design Compliance Matrix (DCM) as the foundation for the verification process. This way, you know that all of your specifications are thoroughly verified. This blog explains how a DCM works and what verification methods there are, including examples.
