1 Subsea Expo 2018 ROV Conference ACCESS the BLUE ECONOMY

2 The BLUE ECONOMY - DEFINITION The Blue Economy is a book by Gunter Pauli publish in 2010 based on the idea that he developed in 2004 In summary its about the benefits of doing more with less and applying this to everything. Or being more efficient and making things more efficient. Take ball bearings!! The World Bank has another definition. It s the sustainable use of ocean resources for economic growth, improved livelihoods and jobs, and ocean ecosystem health. Applicable to many activities onshore, offshore, underwater and under the seabed.

3 AC-ROV 3000m Fly-out System Introduced in 2011

4 MAC-ROV 6000m Fly-out System (2017) 6000m, 4k and HD cameras, SM fibre telemetry Expandable architecture, snag free displacement design Full 6 degrees of freedom for total spatial control Centreless, magnetic coupled, fluid filled thrusters for foul proof operation and Low/No maintenance Highly corrosion and erosion resistant wetted and moving parts 250m excursion TMS

5 Any Depth Access System Fundamentals DEPLOY LOCATE OBSERVE SAMPLE RECOVER LARS and TMS Sonar; USBL, Bathymetry, Side scan Cameras and Lighting Manipulation / Coring / Lifting Payload Capacity (ROV, TMS and LARS)

6 ROV / Submersible Selection Determine maximum depth, tooling and power requirements. Select an ROV with suitable payload, power and telemetry capacity. Determine the maximum gross weight of the ROV allowing for added payload. Match this to a suitable LARS, TMS and lift umbilical. Is there another way to carry power and tools to target and recover loads?

7 How about this? MAC-ROV Think Which functions need to fly? Which functions can be left hanging? Which functions need landing? MAC-ROV TMS 2 Manipulators Corer & Winch at Back Bathymetric and Side scan sonar

13 The BIG ADVANTAGE of SMALL Minimum requirement for Small 6000m SHUTTLE System 6Te mobilisation Air Freight or Container Ship Minimal sea-fastening 25kw Power demand Low CAPEX and OPEX FUGRO HELMERT - 40m x 500Te x /day FUGRO SEARCHER - 65m x 2000Te x /day MINIMUM requirement for the other 6000m ROV Systems ROV / LARS / Control Van & Workshop 40Te mobilisation Custom handling and shipment High lift load sea-fastening Possible deck strengthening required kw power demand Significant CAPEX and OPEX

14 SUMMARY The production and deployment of AUVs has exploded and is forecast to continue. The driver being our hunger to understand the seas and oceans better. What next after AUV findings are analysed, given that they are simply data gatherers? Unquestionably there will be a demand for work capable ROVs, submersible and tools. Is it time for Blue Economy solutions? A lot of current ROV technology and thinking has been dominated by some specific markets. By definition the new and emerging Blue Economy markets need and deserve a more efficient approach. The MAC-ROV product and Shuttle can delivers the same for less to all ocean users. By definition, it is Blue Economy access technology. Tethered vehicles offer the safest and most viable solution to doing work underwater. Launch and Recovery can be hands free. Operating weather windows can be dramatically increased. Real power can be delivered and applied to precise tasks. Data transfer can be real time and of the highest quality, and it is relatively difficult to loose a tethered ROV (compared to an AUV). The BLUE ECONOMY development phases and AUVs / ROVs: Phase 1: search, research, data gathering, analysis = Identify potentials (lots of AUVs) Phase 2: sampling, validating, quantifying = Qualify feasibility (lots of ROVs much less AUVs) Phase 3: Pre-development, prototyping, first pass operations = Prove the process (all ROVs) Phase 4: Full scale production = Return on Investment (ROVs and a few AUVs)
