This site-wide search returns results for all documents and events in Tethys Engineering, prioritizing the best matches. Partial word matches are returned (e.g. "engineer" finds "engineering"), but every entered term must be found. If you don't find any results, try reducing the number of words entered or removing special characters. Filters to the right can help narrow your search. Tethys Engineering features an integrated search with other marine renewable energy databases in PRIMRE - click the buttons below "Showing Results for" to search other integrated databases.

ROV use in new and emerging areas including marine renewable energy and seafloor characterization in high flow environment is growing. With the downturn in the oil and gas industry, there is a reduced level of activity in the marine ROV operations related to the industry. Cost reduction and improved capabilities have become the priorities for ROV development. In this context, the current state…
