Say goodbye to costly, cumbersome deck equipment

Hawkes Remotes ROVs have range and depth capabilities well beyond most current ROVs, without requiring heavy tether management systems for deployment, saving you tens of thousands in operational costs per day.
A new standard in price/performance

HRI’s ROVs have slant ranges as long as 20km and can go as deep as you want to go, for a fraction of the systems and operational cost of other ROVs. Whether your mission is intervention, or observation, there’s an optimal system for you.
Get your work done more quickly and for less cost

Eliminating the requirement for heavy deck equipment and the ships needed to carry them, HRI ROVs are launchable from any ship of opportunity, or platform, or shore, changing the cost equation for subsea intervention, inspection, and observation.
A new standard for safety

Eliminating the need for high voltage power lines on deck, and cumbersome and dangerous deck equipment, HRI is creating a safer environment for ROV operations.

The HRI U-Series ROVs

Combining long-range, speed and intervention capabilities with a substantial payload, the U-series ROVs are ideal for inspection, repair and maintenance applications, scientific work, and search and retrieval.

The first vehicle in HRI’s U series, the U-11000 is optimal for intervention and survey applications which benefit from the range capabilities enabled by HRI’s SpiderOptic™ tether deployment technology. It is outfitted with strong manipulators to perform work and operate a wide range of tools.
Some of the target applications for the U-11000 include:

Inspection, maintenance and repair – the vehicle can be launched from a ship, shore, or an ocean platform to perform a range of visual inspection and maintenance tasks, including cleaning, valve testing, and corrosion testing, along long distances such as pipelines or telecommunications cables. Markets for such tasks include oil & gas, telecommunications cable, and alternative offshore energy.
Survey and sampling – the vehicle can be used for long-range survey and sampling missions charting different measurements obtained by sensor equipment and sampling carried by the vehicle. Markets for such work include scientific research, oceanography, oil & gas, mining, and marine archaeology.
Payload deployment – the vehicle can be used to deploy instruments and other payloads over a long range. Markets for this work include military applications and scientific research.
Object location – the vehicle can be used to locate objects over large areas, such as an airplane black box, a downed ship, or tools and equipment. Once an object is found, the vehicle can directly retrieve it or attach a lift line deployed from the surface.

The U-11000 will be available in early Q2, 2011. The vehicle can be configured for a range of depths including full ocean depth (11000m).
