Abstract
A technique provides for the combined use of a tool and a sensor system to deploy a subsea structural casing. The tool has an engagement region configured to couple with the subsea structural casing. The sensor system is operatively coupled with the tool and comprises a plurality of sensors. The sensors are used to monitor height of the subsea structural casing above a mud line as well as angular deviation of the structural casing during deployment of the subsea structural casing into a seabed.
