Hydra Millennium Plus ROV


The Hydra Millennium Plus is a powerful cage deployed remotely operated vehicle (ROV) that incorporates leading edge technology for improved performance and maintainability. The ROV’s design features a dual manipulator, 330 hp work class system with an enhanced thruster configuration that increases lift capacity by more than 50% when compared to the standard Hydra® Millennium ROV work system.

The Plus model maintains the integrity of the standard Hydra Millennium ROV while offering more serviceability, tooling flexibility and simple survey integration capabilities. These characteristics facilitate the more demanding needs of heavier construction and completion work scopes. As with the original Millennium design, the Plus system employs microprocessor based telemetry to minimize maintenance, decrease set up time, simplify troubleshooting and to provide more automatic control functions.

Fiber optics are used as the primary transmission link for all video and data signals between the vehicle and the surface control console. This allows extremely high quality video technology as well as plug and play installation of sensors and equipment.
