A subsea vehicle capable of supporting inspection of underwater objects while underway includes a body that provides a capability to allow the subsea vehicle to submerge underwater and follow or position near an object while maintaining an orientation to the object appropriate for inspection of, and safety requirements for, the object. The vehicle includes a set of deployable, semi-rigid arms to support the movement of inspection sensor probes near or lightly touching the inspection target with the probes. A controller helps tracks the intended inspection object using various sensor inputs along with a priori knowledge of the object to drive and position the subsea vehicle such that the appropriate orientation to the inspection target is maintained.

The present invention provides an operating method and an operating system of a multiple underwater vehicles 30, wherein exploration missions and exploration depths of the multiple underwater vehicles 30 are differently set in the underwater vehicles 30 for exploring a water bottom, the multiple underwater vehicles 30 are submerged to the respective set exploration depths, the multiple underwater vehicles 30 are made to cruise at the respective set exploration depths to execute the exploration missions, and execution results of the exploration missions are recorded and/or transmitted. According to this, it is possible to deploy and operate the multiple underwater vehicles and safely and efficiently explore the water bottom.

An adapter includes a waterproof container, a photoelectric conversion device housed in the waterproof container and connected to an optical cable, and an attachment structure provided at the waterproof container, for use in detachably attaching the adapter to an ROV.

A system for inspecting flexible pipelines comprises a data analyzer, a data collector and an ultrasonic transducer. Further, the ultrasonic transducer is adapted to propagate shear wave into the annulus of the flexible pipeline. The data collector further comprises a data store and a communicator. Further, the system is capable of differentiating flooding and non-flooding condition of the annulus of the flexible pipeline which is subjected to high pressure. Using the system, an indicator of a flooded or non-flooded condition within the flexible pipeline may be calculated using transmitted and detected reflective waves or the lack of detected reflective waves.
