Weather-Independent
and Safer Subsea Lifting
Innovation Beneath the Waves:
We have reinvented the world of subsea lifting, and made the operations more efficient and safe.
Our VBS system makes underwater lifting less weather dependent and much safer,
compared to traditional methods.
VBS (Variable Buoyancy System)
2.5 Tonne
8 Tonne
1.2 Tonne
Operational
Efficiency
- Subsea handling without lift wire from surface
- Wet storage of Tree Cap, Covers and more.
- Parallel activities
- Transport of tooling
- ROV Operated, no need for surface recovery
Operational
Capability
- ROV operates heavier / larger tools by itself.
- ROV is always neutral, better visibility.
- Less use of thrust
- Increased weather window for operations
Technical
Benefits
- Positive environmental impact
- Low HSE risk (no pressure on deck)
- Stable lift through water column

Teory
Everything started with the question;
Is it possible to create vacuum subsea?
And how can it be used?
Create Void
By decreasing pressure, water is pumped out thus create an uplift force enabling VBS to lift heavy objects.
Reduce Lift
By letting in water the pressure
will equalize, this reduces the lift force
and the load will sink.
How the
VBS Works
By decreasing pressure, water is pumped out.
By letting in water the pressure will equalize
Our systems offers lifting capacity between 0.5 - 8 tons
