C-Surveyor AUV Far East Campaign
mobilize one of its C-Surveyor deepwater AUVs to the Far East in the beginning of 2006.
C & C is currently discussing projects with several operators in the region to align time schedules and budgets. Thomas Chance, President of the company, though states to be uncertain that there is enough work in the Far East to justify the mobilisation costs. “In order for us to expand our AUV services to this region, we must secure several pending projects,” he says.
C & C is presently finishing up the customisation of its next generation AUV, the C-Surveyor II. Once completed, C-Surveyor II will embark on several months of Gulf of Mexico projects. When these GOM projects are completed, a decision will be made regarding mobilisation to the Far East. Meanwhile, the C-Surveyor I is currently working in Brazil and will transit to West Africa in July for various pipeline surveys in that region.
