• Comfortable with mathematical concepts
• Good hand-eye coordination

Audience

• Marine engineers and technicians
• Offshore operations personnel

ROV (Remotely Operated Vehicle) is a type of underwater robot that is controlled by a person aboard a vessel or onshore.

This instructor-led, live training (online or onsite) is aimed at beginner-level to intermediate-level marine engineers and technicians, and offshore operations personnel who wish to gain proficiency in operating and maintaining ROVs for underwater tasks.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to:

• Understand the history, types, and applications of ROVs.
• Identify and explain the components and systems of an ROV.
• Navigate and communicate effectively with ROVs underwater.
• Pilot ROVs with precision in various underwater scenarios.
• Perform routine maintenance and troubleshoot common issues.
• Apply safety protocols during underwater operations.

Format of the Course

• Interactive lecture and discussion.
• Lots of exercises and practice.
• Hands-on implementation in a live-lab environment.
