Geotechnical engineering drives the design of systems for jet trenching, cable burial, seabed trenching and suction piling equipment. It is also the inspiration for many of the innovations and advances that Perry Slingsby Systems has introduced into this field. Geotechnical investigation products are highly specialized tools and systems that can be used for a variety of in situ testing, measuring, drilling and coring tasks at the seabed.
Perry Slingsby Systems developed two ROV-mounted and integrated drilling and coring rigs that were instrumental in a significant mineral exploration campaign offshore during 2007. The rigs were deployed in 1,700m of water and successfully recovered a total of over 100m of core samples from a massive solphide deposit field.
