Remotion deploys new Icarus pipe-wrapping robot offshore
Remotion delivered and deployed a new Icarus robot that automated simultaneous application of STOPAQ corrosion-protection and mechanical-protection tapes on offshore pipework.
Evidence notes
- The completed Icarus system followed a development sprint from an initial February concept to June 2022 delivery.
- The robot applied two tape products at different overlap specifications while maintaining tension and collecting backing film.
- After a DNV-hosted HazID and FMECA, the system went offshore and operated as planned, bringing Remotion's available Icarus fleet to three.
