Provision of a Seabed Survey

Description

Orkney Islands Harbours Marine Services is seeking to commission the delivery of a Remotely Operated Vessel (ROV) survey of an area of the seabed in east Scapa Flow. The observation-class ROV should be capable of being deployed from a small vessel that will not be anchored or have dynamic positioning. The ROV should be sufficiently powerful, and the pilot appropriately skilled, to be able to follow a series of agreed transects over the survey area. Through-water positioning of the vehicle at the seabed (ideally sub-metre accuracy georeferencing) is also required.
