Underwater tools are essential in industries like offshore drilling, underwater construction, and scientific research. These tools rely on hydraulic power units (HPUs) to provide the necessary power for tasks such as cutting, lifting, and manipulation in harsh, high-pressure environments. To ensure efficiency and reliability, HPUs for underwater tools are designed with durability, corrosion resistance, and energy efficiency in mind.
The Hydraulic Power Unit Laboratory (HPULAB) concept is a cutting-edge development, providing a testing environment that simulates the extreme conditions of deep-sea operations. HPULAB technology allows manufacturers to optimize HPUs, ensuring they deliver reliable performance under high pressures, while also incorporating features such as smart control systems for real-time monitoring.
Leading companies in the market, including Parker Hannifin, Hydratight, and Kongsberg Gruppen, are developing innovative HPUs that power remotely operated vehicles (ROVs) and subsea tools, driving advancements in underwater technology and operations.
