The Forum Energy Technology (FET) Subsea product line has secured a contract to provide a work class remotely operated vehicle (ROV) system and a Dynacon Launch and Recovery System (LARS) to ACSM, the Spanish-headquartered global maritime survey and ROV services operator.
Building on a long-term relationship, the FET Perry XLX EVO II will be delivered in 3Q25 to support construction, drilling, pipeline and platform inspection, survey, salvage, cleaning and dredging.
FET’s XLX EVO II ROV system represents the latest evolution in the highly successful Perry XLX series and is equipped with the latest ICE Unity Control System, incorporating remote operations and machine learning. It features significantly enhanced performance across the full range of demanding intervention and survey tasks without compromise to the outstanding reliability for which FET vehicles are renowned throughout the world.
Kevin Taylor, FET’s Vice President Operations - Subsea, said: “We are proud of the longstanding relationship we have with ACSM and look forward to continuing work with our peers in delivering cutting edge ROV operations in the energy sector.
“Our Perry XLX EVO II, coupled with the robust Dynacon LARS system, is built to provide innovative solutions to challenging subsea operations and is equipped to perform reliably in hostile environments around the world.”
The ROV is being manufactured at FET’s UK facility at Kirkbymoorside, North Yorkshire. FET ROVs are used globally to support underwater industry applications, including in defence, traditional and sustainable energy, telecommunications, mining, aquaculture and academia.
