CCC(UE) PANTHER ROV





The CCC (UE) PANTHER ROV is an exciting new concept in ROV systems. The vehicle unit is light weight, especially when compared to virtually all other 1250m rated vehicles with a similar specification and performance. PANTHER incorporates carbon fibre composite material technology for the vehicle’s buoyancy, which doubles as housings for the control electronics.

The ROV utilises 6 x SEAEYE SM5 thruster units. The SM5 drives a 250mm propeller and is a powerful performer. SEAEYE brushless technology ensures efficient, powerful thruster configurations with proven operational reliability, worldwide.

The CCC (UE) PANTHER provides the operator with maximum payload/volume availability. With 959Kgs of payload, a polypropylene chassis, dual manipulator capacity and a low drag coefficient, PANTHER provides an extremely versatile and cost effective ROV package. A full T.M.S. is available as a standard option.
