Widely regarded as the leading observation and inspection vehicle within the oil and gas industry, the Tiger is also increasingly chosen by defence and marine science seeking increased capability in deep water.
The Tiger is a very stable platform, with excellent manoeuvrability and performance in strong currents. Its open frame construction and generous payload offer the possibility of adding a wide range of tools and sensors as well as interchangeable tool skids.
The Tiger is available as a free-swimming vehicle down to depths of 450m. For greater depths down to 1000m, a Tether Management System (TMS) is available.
