GMG is currently upgrading the vessel for the projects in the summer. The ROV and systems package support future operations from Fugro’s remote operations centre (ROC) in Aberdeen, Scotland.
According to the contract, GMG will receive two Fugro core vehicles (FCVs) from Fugro. The FCVs will be a part of the FCV600 model portfolio.
As a versatile work-class ROV (WROV), the FCV600 will enable Fugro’s Normand Clipper to perform different operations while focussing on subsea cable-laying for the use in the offshore and renewables markets.
The FCV600 model can be installed with a custom-built tracked skid to improve the operability by 30% in strong currents.
