Emergency Rescue
The complex and changeable underwater environment and the physiological structure of human beings bring a lot of inconvenience to the exploration and development of the underwater world to a certain extent. The emergence and development of underwater robots can solve these problems.
The advantages of ROV in the field of underwater pipeline inspection
Risk reduction
ROV are able to replace people to enter the complex and changeable underwater environment and ensure the safety of people.
Cost-Effective
Replacing divers with ROV can significantly reduce the cost in time and money.
Raise efficiency
ROV can operate continuously without rest, greatly increasing inspection efficiency.
stable and reliable
AOHI ROV has been developed and used over a long period of time for stability, convenience and reliability.
Application Examples
Water Rescue and Firefighting Drill
Water rescue is a highly urgent and technically demanding operation with significant risks. Firefighting drills help enhance the emergency response and operational capabilities of rescue teams. In August 2017, AOHI technicians were invited to Nanjing to support a rescue drill, demonstrating the use of ROV and contributing to the development of water rescue efforts.
Underwater Emergency Rescue Training
Underwater emergency rescue training is vital for enhancing rescue capabilities. It improves theoretical knowledge, operational skills, and equipment familiarity to ensure efficient, organized, and rapid response. In October 2019, AOHI engineers provided ROV training for firefighting teams to help them master the equipment.
Assist divers in shipwreck investigations.
In June 2017, AOHI's ROV assisted divers in emergency rescue and post-accident salvage investigations during a shipwreck incident. While ensuring diver safety, the robots also accessed narrow and complex underwater areas unreachable by humans to collect items such as wreckage and debris, providing crucial evidence for the subsequent investigation.
Search and recovery of underwater victims.
Traditional search and recovery operations often rely on divers, but they face limitations in underwater working time, coverage, and deployment speed. In contrast, ROV offer rapid deployment, high efficiency, and enhanced safety, making them ideal for such missions. In May 2021, AOHI's ROV equipped with a P360 scanning sonar and a G300 manipulator participated in the search and recovery of underwater victims.
Searching and recovering lost underwater equipment.
In September 2020, after a customer's AUV went missing underwater in Deqing Moganshan and three days of search failed, AOHI was called in. Equipped with a P360 scanning sonar and G300 manipulator, the FindROV located and recovered the AUV in just four hours, greatly improving efficiency and reducing search costs.
Simulated recovery of Arctic OBS seismometer.
In April 2021, AOHI’s ROV simulated Arctic OBS seismometer recovery. Academician Li Jiabiao personally operated the FindROV, completing the drill in minutes. He praised the technology for boosting marine efficiency and encouraged continued innovation to support China’s ocean and polar research.
