Ocean Modules V8 Offshore ROV
The Future of Underwater Technology
The V8 Offshore represents a quantum leap forward for the underwater industry. Taking the concepts that made the V8 Sii a success such as modularity and the 360° control system one step further, adding more power, a 3000 meter depth rating, modular peripheral integration, redundancy, remote software updates and Gigabit Ethernet high-speed data communication has resulted in truly third-generation ROV technology.
Unlimited Sensor and Tool Integration
Every part of the V8 Offshore ROV, from the control system and data interfaces to the physical connectors, junction boxes and buoyancy foam, has been carefully designed to provide maximum potential for expansion. Paired with the patented SPOT.ON software which starts recording of all sensors with the touch of a button, data collection, review, analysis and reporting has never been faster or easier.
Reliable Survey Platform
Survey company DeepOcean Norway has evaluated prototypes of the V8 Offshore for work in the North Sea over a period of three years. The design has been validated for use in harsh conditions through many iterative development cycles. Special care has been taken to finetrim speed, power, interface capabilities and serviceability.
Offshore Research Platform
The Sven Lovén Centre for Marine Sciences at the University of Gothenburg has a V8 Offshore with many never before seen innovations for sampling, documentation, video mosaic, photography, bathymetric survey and tool use.
