Osiris mobilize Cougar XT ROV

Working within the oil and gas industry, Osiris has mobilized its Cougar XT system complete with the new LARS and TMS from their head office in Yorkshire to its final destination in the Gulf of Mexico. 


The Cougar XT is providing operational back-up support for Bluestream Offshore where Osiris will be acting as a sub-contractor. The Cougar XT will be managed by a small on-site team, who will be responsible for the maintenance and operation of the ROV during its involvement within the project. 


Osiris says the project will include the piloting of the ROV and the operation of the new LARS system, which includes a TMS, a first of its kind at Osiris that enhances their capabilities in deep operations. This integrated approach for ROV operations helps to reduce the effect of drag on a long length of surface tended umbilical, providing more consistency and accuracy in the work site during this oil and gas operation.

The Cougar XT undertook a four-week journey, which started with a scheduled stop in the Netherlands and Spain where it was then loaded onto a support vessel for a three week crossing of the Atlantic Ocean to the Gulf of Mexico.
