Nord Stream Munitions Clearance (TMS and ROV)
The TMS (tether management system) is the ROV's "garage". It eliminates the effect of drag of the long length of umbilical attached to the ROV. It also provides protection to the ROV during its launch and recovery.
Via an umbilical, the ROV (remotely operated vehicle) transmits survey data to the support vessel. With its manipulator arms it deploys the explosive charge and collects scrap after the demolition.
Nord Stream developed a plan for the removal of munitions to ensure that the pipeline is safe and the effects on the Baltic Sea environment and on marine life are minimal.
