Triton Group

Triton Group is an international group of businesses offering a range of subsea controls technology products and services, bringing some of the leading names in sub- sea technology together into an integrated product offer- ing. Since its creation in 2007, following an MBO of

Perry Slingsby Systems (PSS), a leading provider of remote intervention systems, Triton Group has created an unri- valled breadth and depth of subsea expertise. By pursuing a buy-and-build strategy Triton has succeeded in combin- ing a group of complementary businesses and making the company one of the key players in the subsea sector.

The Group's extensive offering includes design, devel- opment, manufacture, sale and rental of remotely operat- ed technologies and their systems’ components: related services such as offshore personnel recruitment, equip- ment rentals and engineering solutions. The innovative technology offering also extends to geosciences project management and data analysis, seabed geotechnical cor- ing, software products in physics based simulation and 3D visualization, digital video editing and data management applications.

With increasing demands for state-of-the art technology and services in the subsea sectors, Triton Group, is com- mitted to a research and development program which pro- duces innovations which are reliable, robust and cost effi- cient. During the past year, the company has made signif- icant headway in this area of the business. PSS added the

Triton XLR, 'baby brother' to the Triton XLX, to the very successful Triton series which began with the XL and XLS.

A medium workclass ROV, the vehicle system is designed for light construction work and incorporates the latest controls technology, ICE, graphic user interface and ergonomic control consoles.

Fellow group company, Sub-Atlantic, recently developed one of the most adaptable product offerings on the mar- ket: the Mojave is the most powerful observation ROV for its size. The compact ergonomic design and light weight construction allows for speedy deployment using a variety of power supply options. The system also features the subCAN control and diagnostics system. Ideally suited for a wide range of subsea missions, the Mojave can oper- ate in depths of 300m using the very latest in miniature

PC technology.

Seafloor Geoservices Inc introduced the latest evolution in the Rovdrill series. Rovdrill 3, a remotely operated seafloor drilling system is powered and controlled through

ROV intervention. Rovdrill 1 & 2 were successfully deployed during exploration campaigns offshore Papua

New Guinea. To optimize a much wider application mar- ket, the design concept has been developed and enhanced

Outland Technology Inc. was estab- lished in Gretna, La. in 1984. From its inception, the company's goal has been to design and manufacture a range of video and audio products using high volume components adapted for specific applications. In

October 1996, Technology Profile:

Outland's product line evolves con- stantly as the company tries to adapt new technology to subsea applica- tions. Many never make it past testing but some do. The new single LED light the UWL-401 uses many of the same parts as Outland cameras, so spare parts are common to both.

With each new generation, the

Outland 1000 ROV is outfitted with longer cables, more cameras, new sonars, and more power. 34 MTR July/August 2010
