TMT Docking Probe

 

 

Docking Probes are an intervention system for station keeping and firmly attaches an ROV to an underwater structure preventing the ROV from moving during the execution of tasks and provides a positive location for the repeatability of tasks, as per ISO 13628-8.

 

Docking Probes are used where the loading of subsea equipment interface is not desirable (as in the case of the operation of needle valves or hot stabs) where heavier loads are being handled i.e. jumper slabs or where many interfaces are close together i.e. in a panel.
