Terrorist threats have been a reality for many centuries. Security is an issue that many people all over the world worry about each day. At the end of 2004, many ports, tankers and vessels owners moved forward towards completing their requirements with IMO's International Ship and Port Security Code (ISPS) along with the US Coast Guard's Maritime Security Act (MTSA). But protection cannot stop at requirements. It has to be pushed above and beyond and we must always be looking for security improvements.

With airport security being improved dramatically over the past couple of years, there has been more focus on the waters. Some of the most important tools to insure that the maritime industry stays safe, are Remotely Operated Vehicles (ROV). – Click here to read what an ROV is. – Click here for ROV Reviews.

ROV’s can be used in many places where humans cannot go, but more importantly they can be used in places where humans might not want to go due to security risks. Along with safety, they also provide an excellent cost effective alternative to divers. With a skilled pilot operating an ROV, many tasks could even be performed quicker than a diving operation.

 
 
 

ROV's can solve some of the major maritime security issues today.
