Deep Trekker, Planet Ocean Team Up at Subsea Expo

Deep Trekker and its UK dealer, Planet Ocean, will jointly exhibit at the Subsea Expo, running from February 11th – 13th at the Aberdeen Exhibition and Conference Centre.

Deep Trekker will be bringing along their DTG2 remotely operated vehicle (ROV) and a 200 gallon demonstration tank, the company wrote on their website.

Planet Ocean MD, Terry Sloane, commented: “We have been waiting for the right ROV to come along to enhance our other offerings, and Deep Trekker fits the bill exactly. It should be of huge interest to our existing customers in the science, aquaculture, moorings inspection, military, search and rescue, and ports and harbours sectors. It is fantastic value for such a powerful ROV and makes this technology affordable to many new potential users. We look forward to doing customer demonstrations, this really has to be seen.”

Planet Ocean and Deep Trekker will be located at booth 134b, giving attendees the chance to pilot the Deep Trekker remotely operated vehicle.

The Oil & Gas industry has so many uses for small portable ROVs,” commented Sam Macdonald, Deep Trekker President. “From inspecting mooring chains and fairleads, to thruster and hull inspection, the possibilities are endless for an easy to use and robust mini ROV.”

The Deep Trekker ROV is equipped with on-board batteries, a hand-held video controller, and a patented pitching system.
