TITLE: Diverless Teleoperated Robotic System for Inspection, Cleaning, Maintenance, and Intervention on Mooring Lines
Description: The main objective of this project is the development of a technology and its associated infrastructure for measuring the chain links of mooring lines on floating production units. The development of the robotic system is planned, building upon solutions already proposed by the team. The prototype of the robotic system to be developed will be initially tested in a laboratory environment, followed by evaluations in sheltered marine waters, and finally modified to become a field prototype. This latter prototype, after being tested in sheltered waters, will be subject to validation and adjustments during and after the final testing phase in the offshore working environment. Finally, the project includes the investigation of a dedicated propulsion/maneuvering system, as well as the extension of the robotic system to additional tasks related to the maintenance and repair of the mooring line.
