Tool Deployment Units

Dual Point Tool Deployment Unit

  • Product Number: ITE-0017-DR-0000-00
  • Standard Duty: RIT-0002-D-0001-00
  • Deployed from a workclass ROV, the tool deployment unit (TDU) ensures a safe and efficient intervention operation. Using two docking probes, rather than attaching with a grabber or suction pad, the system is able to locate and stabilise the ROV in a known position and precisely deploy a dedicated tool via an XYZ mechanism.
