Times are hard here in the oil and gas sector if you are an ROV pilot like myself. The aquaculture industry is growing at an astonishing rate. The demand for the the farms to be inspected is increasing all the time.
It’s a good idea if you are a pilot stuck at home and i know there is a lot in norway following all the lay offs. Invest in a mini ROV and hire yourself out to the farmers for some inspection work. I recommend the deeptrekker, thats what we are using at marinequip. http://www.marinequip.no, take a look at our website if you are interested and get in touch.
we are also a reseller for deeptrekker here in Norway http://www.deeptrekker.com
