A New Way to Work
Our Onshore Remote Operations Centers (OROCs) transition ROV pilots and industry experts back to shore, enhancing safety, reducing environmental impact, and improving collaboration among teams and clients. This shift not only boosts operational efficiency but also drives significant advancements in how offshore work is performed. From commissioning to decommissioning, our OROCs offer comprehensive support for offshore operations, including UWILD, surveys, rig positioning, subsea asset inspections, and IMR services.

Enabling Remote Operations
Learn how our OROC facilities can revolutionize your operations from shore with enabling technologies such as Remote Piloting and Automated Control Technology (RPACT) which pilots use to establish ROV control through a satellite or wireless network link to support operations at a remote work site.
Onshore Remote Operations Center (OROC)
Our Onshore Remote Operations Centers (OROCs) are conveniently located across the globe to enable remote operations from offshore installations. OROCs use 4G network, satellite, or fiber cable connectivity to ensure reliable support.
OROC in Macae, Brazil
In 2023, we established our latest OROC in Macaé, Brazil. Our team achieved a new milestone flying an ROV from our dedicated center, conducting riser inspections and UWILD tasks for a valued customer.
The Oceaneering Difference
We offer cutting-edge solutions to ensure uninterrupted, near real-time operations from our OROCs.
Liberty™ Resident System
Designed to communicate with and be operated from one of our OROCs, the Liberty™ Resident System is a fully self-contained docking station for ROVs and AUVs with 550 kwh of battery power for remote, resident operations.
The technology combination minimizes carbon footprint and total cost of ROV operations while supporting 24/7 operations, independent of vessel port calls.
