SCANMACHINE
The Scanmachine tool-carrying systems are designed for implementing dredging, excavator, cutting, and various other hydraulically operated tools.
They have been successfully deployed in many deep, shallow, harsh water, high current, and low visibility underwater construction activities such as:
- Subsea precision excavation and dredging, in connection with repairs, hot-tapping, pile cutting, and inspection
- Levelling and modification of seabed (rock dump, hard and soft clays, and soils)
- Rock dump, drillcut, boulder, and debris removal/relocation
- Pipeline and cable deburial, maintenance, location, and inspection
- Grouting removal
- Special Trenching tasks
- Assistance and preparation for installation and decommissioning of platforms and subsea assets
- Near shore programs (such as precision drilling in preparation for blasting and High Voltage cable repair)
The Scanmachine is developed and operated by Scanmudring.
The system consist of the unit itself, a control container, equipment container, welding container, sheave wheel and one umbilicals winch. The operation is controlled and monitored from the operating position in the control container.
High precision equipment and services which are available for rental with specialist Scanmudring personnel.
Scanmachine 1, 2 and 3 high precision systems:
- require a team of 6 multidiscipline personnel for 24-hour operation
- operate with Mos (excavation monitoring system) to an accuracy of +/- 5 cm
- is operable in water depths ranging from 5m to 1000m
