specialist inspection
All footage is captured in 4k which provides the client with clear and detailed footage, that if required can be paused, zoomed and specific targets can be seen clearly.
There have been occasions where a more specialist type of inspection is required on selected areas. For example, these can be:
- Ballast pipe thickness checking.
- Close visual inspection under the elephants’ foot.
- Stern tubes, J tubes and associated pipework.
- Sound pipes.
COST EFFECTIVE
We can size any defects that are found at the time of inspection. This equipment comes as standard with our smaller ROV’s.
To carry out any works in ballast tanks would require 1 x ROV and 2 technicians.
Working in this manner is cost effective, low risk and faster than the traditional rope access method. Any indications that are noted at time of the inspection and monitored in a timely manner, until such times where the repairs are required.
- Personnel and systems can be mobilised at a moments notice for any urgent queries.
