During the test phase, ROVs underwent a week of intensive trials from Boskalis’ construction support vessel (CSV) BOKA Northern Ocean in the North Sea to validate remote operations across a range of anticipated scenarios.

The milestone follows an 18-month development program and an investment of GBP 40 million (around €46.8 million) in ROVs and the ROC. The center was opened in 2025.
“The Remote Operations Center is a proud milestone for our team and a significant step forward in the way we deliver subsea operations. It demonstrates how innovation and technology can make our work safer, more efficient and better integrated,” said Bart Heijermans , Boskalis’ COO and member of the Board of Management.
“It also represents an important investment in our subsea services offering from our Aberdeen office, creating more than fifty high-quality onshore roles in the next five years to support our offshore crew and vessels while maintaining the high standards our clients expect. ”
