JF cuts inspection downtime

摘要

James Fisher Subsea (JF Subsea) has reduced inspection downtime to 2% for Shell UK “through the innovative use of asset-based remotely oper- ated vehicles (ABROVs) on oil rig inspection pro- grammes in the North Sea”. “Traditionally, oil rig inspections are undertaken using a dedicated remotely operated vehicle sup- port vessel (ROVSV), on which an ROV is secured. To remove the need of a ROVSV and the hazards involved with securing an ROV to the off- shore platform, JF Subsea provided Shell UK with a gravity-based ABROV system,” JF Subsea said.
