Dockstr partners with SEAMOR to deliver modular ROV platforms

This collaboration expands our subsea portfolio with SEAMOR’s field-upgradeable ROV systems designed for operational flexibility, long-term serviceability, and seamless integration across inspection and intervention tasks..

Engineering Flexibility Below the Surface

SEAMOR Marine's approach to Remotely Operated Vehicle (ROV) design is centered on hypermodularity, enabling rapid customization and field upgrades without necessitating returns to the factory. By integrating modular interfaces early in the design process, SEAMOR ensures that base-model ROVs can be mass-produced and later tailored with standardized procedures, simplifying both manufacturing and sales processes .

This modular architecture allows customers to modify their systems in the field, adding or replacing components such as cameras, lights, and manipulators as needed. Standardized interfaces and practices not only streamline the manufacturing process but also ensure that new products retain a familiarity in structure and operation. This consistency simplifies engineering documentation and ensures that production and service operations remain efficient, as new designs do not catch production staff off guard .

SEAMOR's commitment to modularity and standardization empowers customers to adapt their ROVs to evolving mission requirements, enhancing versatility and cost-effectiveness across various underwater applications.

Design approach that allows components such as thrusters, cameras, and sensors to be added or replaced easily, enabling quick customization and system upgrades in the field.
Use of common interfaces and procedures across product lines to streamline manufacturing, reduce complexity, and maintain consistency in design and documentation.
Capability for customers to upgrade or modify their ROVs on-site without returning equipment to the factory, reducing downtime and increasing operational flexibility.
Base-model ROVs can be mass-produced and tailored with mission-specific modules (“decorated”), offering a balance of efficiency in production and adaptability for diverse applications.

Engineering Agility Below the Surface

This partnership strengthens our offering with SEAMOR’s modular ROV platforms enabling rapid configuration, reliable performance, and long-term serviceability in complex subsea environments.
