    Conventional deep sea pipework is costly and dangerous. A robotic system has been developed to perform underwater welding beyond the reach of divers. The system includes hydraulic equipment called Atlantis and a modular frame called MATIS. Atlantis joins pipes on the seabed using pre-welded flanges, while MATIS aligns and positions the pipes. A computer controls the entire operation.

    Robots limber up to take over underwater welding

    Conventional deep sea pipework is costly and dangerous, and in future it will probably be
    performed in even deeper waters beyond the reach of divers. Therefore, a diverless robotic system for
    joining pipes on the seabed has been developed.
    The robotic system consists of the hydraulically-operated bolt fixing and tensioning equipment
    (Atlantis) and the modular advanced tie-in system (MATIS), i.e. the space-frame surround for Atlantis.
    Atlantis joins two pipes on the seabed using flanges pre-welded to the pipes before entering the sea,
    whereby MATIS acts as a 3-axis manipulator for aligning the pipes and rotating the flanges into position.
    The entire operation is controlled by a computer.
