Tools

We have built a wide variety of tools to meet particular underwater challenges. The tools can be used by ROVs or divers but the most important feature of our work is that the tools are thoroughly, and often destructively tested onshore before going into action.

Case Studies

Hot Stabs

Hot Stabs

These are high pressure hydraulic connections used by ROvs. This is a fixed T-bar with compliant mounts but we can also make compliant T's.

Draxpanders

The Draxpanders were used successfully on the Erika oil recovery job. 800 were made in total. This is a diver operated tool where the drill and the expanding anchor are combined - hence the name Draxpander.

Grouting Connectors
