Rotech Re-Enters Subsea Market

Following an acquisition of its subsea business by Reef Subsea UK in 2011, Rotech Group is now re-entering the market with its Rotech Subsea company. 

Having previously built up and operated the Rotech Subsea mass flow excavation business from 1999, Rotech Subsea‘s equipment was subsequently sold to Reef Subsea UK in 2011.

The new business, led by Stephen Cochrane as the director, now has a new range of subsea excavation equipment, from Controlled Flow Excavation and Dredging with the RS1 through to Cable Burial & Backfilling with the RS9.

Director of Engineering Dr Don Stewart said: “The RS tools build on our knowledge and experience of subsea excavation, and will take us into markets and opportunities not available to traditional Mass Flow tools, with the new RS tools delivering higher jet speeds and combining jetting, suction and reburial capabilities.”

Rotech Group said that engineering & fabrication companies will again be responsible for the design and manufacturing of the new subsea assets. Their focus will be the subsea commissioning, inspection, repair, maintenance and decommissioning markets.
