Hydra Millennium ROV


Hydra Millennium ROVs are 150 hp high performance work class vehicles developed to operate in water depths to 10,000 fsw. The ROV's specialized work capabilities include the ability to run and operate tools, such as large dredge and jet pumps that require high hydraulic fluid flow.

With a strong emphasis on reliability and standardization, the Millennium is based on the proven Hydra Magnum series design, but features higher horsepower and capabilities for increased water depths and larger payloads. The Millennium utilizes the Magnum cage design, which allows vehicles of either series to carry and operate work packages of any shape and size suitable for ROV deployment.

The Millennium design evolved in response to extensive discussions with Customers who were looking for enhanced performance and work capabilities to support their deepwater drilling and field development programs worldwide.
