Bibby takes SMD ROV delivery

Bibby Offshore has taken delivery of two Quantum MkIII 250hp 3000m-rated work class remotely operated vehicles (ROV). The company's ROV fleet has now increased to nine SMD vehicles, including one Atom and six Quasars.

Each of the Quantum work class ROV systems includes SMD’s extended tophat tether management system, telescopic A-frame, umbilical winch, deck pack and fully-integrated control cabin.

The Quantum work class ROV is the largest vehicle within SMD’s Q-Series work class ROV range offering 350kg payload, 1400kgF horizontal thrust capability and 210LPM tooling supply. It utilizes the SMD Curvetech components and DVECS-S advanced dynamic positioning system. Both systems have been configured for installation onto the Bibby Offshore Olympic Ares subsea support and construction vessel. The ROVs are also configured to be interchangeable with the two Quasar vehicles initially mobilized on this vessel.
