A resident remotely operated vehicle may be deployed subsea by deploying a remotely operated vehicle (ROV) () configured to be disposed and remain resident subsea for an extended time where the ROV comprises an ROV electrical power connector port () to be operatively connected to an electrical power supply () dedicated to the ROV. An RTMS configured to be disposed subsea for an extended time is also deployed subsea (), typically proximate the ROV. A subsea docking hub subsea is also deployed subsea proximate the RTMS and operatively connected to the ROV and the RTMS. In addition, an umbilical is connected from the subsea docking hub to a subsea structure and a signal supplied from the subsea structure to the ROV.

Autonomous ROVs with offshore power source that can return to recharge

A remotely operated vehicle integrated system comprises one or more remotely operated vehicles (ROV) configured to be deployed substantially continuously subsea and one or more a tether management systems configured to be deployed substantially continuously subsea. The ROVs and tether management systems are typically deployed substantially continuously subsea where a first signal interface, e.g. for power and/or data, is operatively connecting the signal source deployed substantially permanently subsea and one or more of the ROVs operatively connected the signal source.
