Description

  • RTE carries out regular submarine data collection campaigns during the design, construction, and operational maintenance phases of its assets. These campaigns may include bathymetric surveys, geophysical soundings, UXO findings, optical monitoring of structures or environmental monitoring and measurements. Currently carried out by conventional means (surface vessels or on foot at landfall), these investigations could in the future be carried out by autonomous or remotely-controlled robots/vehicles. In addition to reducing costs, the expected benefits include operational efficiency, reduced risk for personnel, and a smaller environmental footprint for operations, as well as the accuracy of the data collected.
    RTE would like to investigate on innovative autonomous or remote solutions applicable to its scope of service for cables, particularly AUVs (Autonomous Underwater Vehicles), USVs (Unmanned Surface Vehicles) or flying vehicle, which can renew conventional approaches to data acquisition in the marine environment. Hence this inquiry aims to solicit the market to have its various actors emerge and help RTE identify them. It shall also allow the market to clarify its capacity of service with respect to RTE inquiry and propose adapted and robust solutions.
    This notice is aimed at companies capable of offering a service, covering either: unmanned or autonomous vehicles supply, unmanned or autonomous vehicles deployment, data acquisition and interpretation of results. The deployment sites envisaged are located offshore and on the shores of mainland France: in the English Channel, on the Atlantic coast and in the Mediterranean. At this stage of its inquiry, RTE is interested in companies capable to offer only part of the above listed services as well as turnkey player, i.e. capable of performing the full scope
