From inspection to intervention, we deliver automated ROV systems and tooling that solve the unique challenges of marine aquaculture with innovation and reliability.

Our systems are designed for permanent installation either at sea or on vessels and are operated remotely from a control center. This setup enables continuous operations with improved safety and availability, independent of weather conditions.

Inspection, sampling, repairs, and component replacement can be carried out without personnel needing to be physically present on site.

Depro’s systems are built with modularity in mind, enabling adaptation to future requirements and new technologies.

Robust Cable Control and Modular Systems

Our spooling system ensures full control of the cable under all conditions. This enables hassle-free remote operation and allows the ROV to move freely. Dedicated tether cables are designed to handle both spooling and the demanding environments in which they operate.

Our TMS (Tether Management Systems) are modular and can be delivered in various formats, including tub, box, or low-profile systems. Components such as motors, gears, and control systems are standardized, making storage and maintenance easier.
