Benthic’s portable remotely operated drill (PROD) will perform rotary drilling and sampling, and in situ testing to penetration depths of up to 100 m (328 ft) below the mudline, in water depths ranging from 50 m (164 ft) to 3,000 m (9,843 ft).
With the drill unit located on the seabed, PROD provides a stable and controlled platform, enabling Benthic’s team to make tool adjustments and collect data.
