Successful Delivery of Another Ocean Modules V8 M500 ROV System to the Finnish Border Guard

The Finnish Border Guard has been an appreciated client of Ocean Modules who bought their first Ocean Modules V8 Sii ROV systems, back in 2012. Now, ten years later, they are in the process of upgrading their ROV fleet to the latest version of the V8 M500 model as well as attending in their ROV system training courses.




The V8 M500 offers a variety of possibilities, of which the Finnish Boarder Guard is keen to make use of, for instance by adding Survey Management Software SPOT.ON and a number of high technology sensors, such as a Kongsberg’s Mesotech 360° rotating sonar as well as a Blueview multibeam sonar. On the V8 M500 ROV, the potential of these sonars are being utilized fully, since they can be aimed at any direction (rather than only in the forward mounted direction) while the ROV keeps moving - an effect made possible by the 6 degrees of freedom concept.
