Omega Subsea Robotics was established in 2022 as an industrial collaboration between Solstad Offshore and Omega Subsea, with the goal of making joint investments in ROV systems and associated equipment. In 2022, investments were made in two HD ROV systems from the supplier Schilling Robotics (US); both systems were delivered in 2022 and are currently mobilized on board the Solstad vessel Normand Frontier.
In 2023, an additional four ROV systems were acquired and will be mobilized on board selected vessels in the Solstad Offshore fleet. The vessels and the timing of mobilization will be determined by Solstad Offshore throughout the remainder of 2023.
Omega Subsea will be responsible for managing, operating, and staffing the ROV systems in the future.
