Our Research Submarines
(conventionally powered) are deployed directly from the pier with
up to six personnel onboard (engineers, scientists, corporate
planners) and arrive at the dive-site under independent power.
Operations are conducted without the need of large and expensive
DP support ships, reducing both cost and weather related delays
associated with deployment and retrieval protocols. The RS Class
submarines are capable of navigating over 400 nautical miles either
on the surface or submerged in the snorkel mode. View a summary

RS-1 Specifications or RS-2
Specifications.
Under aggressive conditions (up to Sea State 6*) the submarines
can dive to avoid turbulence altogether. Submerged autonomy is
up to five days** allowing the RS Submarines to complete projects
with little sensitivity to weather. The spacious pressure hull
provides comfortable accommodations for up to six personnel, with
a full galley, head and sleeping quarters as additional amenities.
Additional hull sections
may be added to accommodate a myriad of custom requirements, including
diver lock-out, diver support, ROV deployment, additional batteries,
fuel cells and proprietary closed cycle diesel technologies. The
RS-1 has a functional AIP (Air Independent Propulsion) system
onboard that may be used to extend the vessel's submerged endurance.
The
RS Submarines are designed for many long range / large area applications
