The annual inspection covered subsea production systems and Xmas trees, including integrity checks, assessment of anode status, and seabed condition surveys. In addition, extended survey work was undertaken to support preparations for the upcoming decommissioning campaign.
The project was delivered using Reach Remote 1, an unmanned surface vessel equipped with an electric ROV. This milestone marks the successful use of a remotely operated vessel for TotalEnergies, enhancing safety and efficiency in offshore inspection activities.
“Using Reach Remote 1 allowed us to perform the inspection safely and efficiently, while also demonstrating the potential of unmanned offshore operations. It is very rewarding to see this milestone achieved together with TotalEnergies,” said Nick Herrington, Project Manager at Reach Subsea.
