One of the most innovative developments are Remotely Operated Vehicles (ROV) with capabilities to withstand the immense pressure of water at depths greater than 3,000 meters.
Equipped with stereoscopic vision cameras and two high-precision arms, these types of ROVs allow operators to create 3D models of the underwater terrain and manipulate objects with unprecedented precision.
In addition, thanks to virtual reality, operators can control the robot from anywhere in the world, which represents a significant advance in oil exploration technology.
Increased security in all areas
Remote presence in ultra-deep waters not only facilitates logistics and reduces costs, but it also eliminates the safety risks faced by crews on the high seas.
El Hardware developed for these robots, it is powerful and allows us to process data in real time, converting 2D images into 3D maps.
This capability is essential for tasks such as rotating valves in submarine panels, which were previously performed manually with great risks and associated costs.
For example, in the case of Mexico, prospective resources in deepwater reservoirs represent 56% of the total resource in the country, and their exploitation depends to a large extent on technological advances in marine robotics.
Marine robotics is revolutionizing the way oil is explored and exploited in deep waters. With developments such as ROVs and the integration of virtual reality, the oil industry is ready to face the challenges of the future with innovation and security.
