Higher weight requires larger lifting vessels, larger transport fleets and tugs.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

At this moment, removing biofouling on land is the preferred option, but involves significant negative environmental and societal consequences. Finding landfill sites that accept biofouling and are close to decommissioning yards, as well as complaints about odors, are challenges that recycling yards must be handled.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In situ cleaning of biofouling solves these problems by reducing the weight of the decommissioned oil- and gas constructions, and as the removed biofouling falls to the seabed, it becomes part of the natural marine environment.<\/p>\n

Bravo Marine has developed C-RAY\u00ae ROV, an underwater cleaning unit (ROV) capable of removing biofouling from round (pipe-like) surfaces (vertical, horizontal, or diagonal).[\/vc_custom_heading][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_empty_space empty_h=”3″][vc_custom_heading text_font=”font-427594″ text_size=”h3″ text_weight=”300″ text_transform=”uppercase” text_color=”color-xsdn” css_animation=”zoom-in”]Know more?[\/vc_custom_heading][vc_separator sep_color=”color-120968″ css_animation=”zoom-in” el_width=”20%”][vc_custom_heading text_font=”font-505875″ text_size=”h5″ text_weight=”300″ text_color=”color-xsdn” css_animation=”bottom-t-top”]See more under products: C-RAY\u00ae ROV[\/vc_custom_heading][vc_button border_animation=”btn-ripple-out” border_width=”0″ css_animation=”bottom-t-top” link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fbravomarine.no%2Fprodukter%2F|title:Products|”]Products[\/vc_button][vc_empty_space empty_h=”4″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_height_percent=”100″ back_image=”215″ parallax=”yes” kburns=”yes” overlay_color=”color-120968″ overlay_alpha=”50″ overlay_color_blend=”multiply” gutter_size=”4″ column_width_percent=”100″ shift_y=”0″ z_index=”0″ enable_top_divider=”default” top_divider=”gradient” shape_top_h_use_pixel=”true” shape_top_height_percent=”50″ shape_top_color=”color-166901″ shape_top_opacity=”100″ shape_top_index=”0″ desktop_visibility=”yes”][vc_column width=”1\/1″][vc_empty_space empty_h=”5″ mobile_visibility=”yes”][vc_single_image media=”840″ media_width_percent=”100″ media_ratio=”one-one” alignment=”center” shape=”img-circle” shadow=”yes” shadow_weight=”lg” shadow_darker=”yes” css_animation=”zoom-in”][vc_empty_space empty_h=”4″ mobile_visibility=”yes”][vc_empty_space empty_h=”2″ desktop_visibility=”yes”][vc_row_inner row_inner_height_percent=”0″ overlay_alpha=”50″ gutter_size=”3″ shift_y=”0″ z_index=”0″ limit_content=””][vc_column_inner column_width_percent=”100″ gutter_size=”3″ overlay_alpha=”50″ shift_x=”0″ shift_y=”0″ shift_y_down=”0″ z_index=”0″ medium_width=”0″ mobile_width=”0″ width=”1\/1″][vc_custom_heading text_font=”font-427594″ text_size=”h4″ text_weight=”300″ text_transform=”uppercase” text_color=”color-xsdn” css_animation=”zoom-in”]Oil and gas infrastructure[\/vc_custom_heading][vc_separator sep_color=”color-120968″ css_animation=”zoom-in”][vc_custom_heading text_font=”font-505875″ text_size=”h6″ text_weight=”300″ text_color=”color-xsdn” css_animation=”bottom-t-top”]After immersion, oil and gas are structures are colonized by marine organisms (anemones, mussels, sponges, and algae) that grow on the structure itself (biofouling).
