TORPEDO AUV
The Torpedo AUV is an autonomous underwater vehicle specially designed for the internal inspections of pipelines and tunnels at distances up to 5000m.
The vehicle is equipped with a front HD color video camera with integrated LED lighting and can be also fitted with various other sensors such as multibeam sonar (acoustic imaging) and acoustic profiler.
It is connected to the surface through a 2.1 mm diameter Dyneema cable, allowing its recovery and the measurement of the covered distance by an odometer located on the electrical winch.
Dams and hydraulic structures
Torpedo makes possible the visual and sonar inspection of flooded pipes at dam and other energy facility levels (nuclear and thermal power plants) such as water intakes, penstocks or discharge pipes. Thanks to its torpedo-shape form factor and reduced Width/Height, Torpedo allows internal pipe inspections from DN 500.
Offshore O&G
Originally designed as for an industrial project in the O&G sector, Torpedo allows internal inspections of oil pipes before commissioning or during maintenance operations. It was used to position with a high level of accuracy some defects located several km away from the pipe entry point.
Drinking / Waste / Storm waters
The Torpedo’s primary domain is the potable water and sanitation sector (wastewater and stormwater), which remains its main application to date. Torpedo enables the inspection of pressurized pipelines with diameters starting from 500 mm over long distances, thus eliminating the need for lengthy and tedious launch and recovery operations at intermediate manholes.
