ROV FOR SUBMERSIBLE RIG PLATFORM INSPECTION

  • Unique Paper ID: 183661
  • PageNo: 2625-2631
  • Abstract:
  • This study presents the design of a cost-effective Remotely Operated Vehicle (ROV) for underwater rig inspection. The ROV ensures water resistance through advanced sealing mechanisms and features an optimized propulsion system for precise maneuverability. It is equipped with systems for real-time navigation, depth estimation, and environmental monitoring, enhancing inspection accuracy. The design prioritizes durability, efficiency, and ease of deployment, making it a practical solution for underwater infrastructure assessment. The offshore industry relies on submersible rigs for various operations, including exploration, maintenance, and resource extraction. However, inspecting these rigs poses significant challenges due to the extreme underwater conditions, such as high pressure, low visibility, and strong currents. Traditional inspection methods often require human divers, exposing them to hazardous environments and increasing operational risks. To mitigate these challenges, this research aims to develop a Remotely Operated Vehicle (ROV) capable of performing efficient and reliable inspections of submersible rigs.This research will focus on developing a robust and intuitive control interface, allowing users to operate the ROV with ease while maintaining precise maneuverability in underwater environments. The system will incorporate advanced imaging and sensor technologies to detect structural anomalies, corrosion, and other critical factors affecting submersible rigs. By integrating cutting-edge engineering principles, this project aims to provide a sustainable and effective solution for underwater inspections, reducing operational costs and improving safety standards in offshore industries.
