Forum Energy Technologies ( FET ) announces the launch of the XLX EVO III , an advanced work-class ROV designed to maximize performance in subsea operations. This remotely operated vehicle ( ROV ) integrates innovations in propulsion, buoyancy and payload capacity, setting a new standard in the industry.
FET’s new XLX EVO III ROV
This ROV features larger thrusters that optimize performance in the water, ensuring more stable and efficient operation. In addition, its design allows for greater buoyancy to carry up to 500 kg of payload. It also integrates a new CNC-machined frame, which facilitates access for maintenance and improves tool integration.
