everything remotely possible SUBSEA TECHNOLOGIES MANAGEMENT SYSTEM The Type 5c Tether Management System (TMS) has been specially developed to provide an ultra-compact and weight-efficient solution. It is capable of handling a 9000kg ROV package with 3g rating. It is suitable for all work- class ROVs. The TMS stores and deploys the ROV package tether cable so that the ROV motion is decoupled from motions of the main umbilical to the surface vessel. It allows the ROV to work at a greater operating radius from the deployment The docking box used on the underside of the TMS has a powerful two stage latching action that structurally locks the ROV to the TMS for deployment and recovery through the sea surface. The top lifting cone can be a Forum Standard design or custom specified bul- let, to suit an existing A-Frame. The Type 5c TMS has a gentle tether route which will maximize the operating life of any matched tether.
