Rental Technology & Services (RTS), a leading provider of rental equipment for the subsea industry, adds Exail’s Gaps M5 USBL acoustic positioning and communication system to its rental pool of equipment. The move comes as part of the company’s ongoing effort to offer the latest and most innovative solutions to its customers from its newly established UK offices. In addition, Gaps M5 is available for RTS customers globally. It addresses accuracy and performance needs, and requirements for vertical and horizontal tracking applications.
Exail Gaps M5 USBL System Overview
The latest addition to Exail’s USBL product range, Gaps M5 is a compact, export-free, and omnidirectional USBL system that uses acoustic technology to accurately locate and track subsea assets in real-time. Furthermore, the system is designed for use in challenging environments with shallow water up to 995 m water depth. In addition, it offers high accuracy, reliability, and ease of use. Therefore, it is an ideal solution for a diver, subsea asset, or inspection ROV horizontal tracking.
RTS Perspective on the Addition
“By bringing the Gaps M5 USBL system to our UK office, we are once again looking to respond to what we know our customers are demanding” said Dale Townend, UK Technical Manager at Rental Technology & Services. “This investment in the new Gaps M5 USBL systems and MT9 transponders represents a valuable addition of assets that we haven’t previously held in our rental pool. We are excited to now have access to these advanced systems going forward, continuing our close relationship with Exail, and supporting our customers’ project requirements for accuracy and efficiency on a global scale”.
