The OTAQ High Precision Metrology Stab (Met-Stab) provides a reliable and accurate solution for mounting, orientation and recovery of subsea survey frames. With four numbered cardinal locking locations, the Met-Stab enables repeatable mounting accuracies of Heading 0.1° and Pitch Roll of 0.01°. Separation is achieved via an easy-to-use ROV removeable handle. The Met-Stab is a robust design for repeated offshore use and easy servicing, incorporating sacrificial, standard components that ensure consistent and simple mating and un-mating performance on each deployment.
