Williamson & Associates - Model ROCS -Remotely Operated Core Sampler
Our latest drill system, the ROCS (Remotely Operated Core Sampler), is designed to be mounted on a work class ROV, making this tool one of the most flexible and economic ways of obtaining deep sea core samples. ROCS core drills have been used in the exploration of cobalt-rich ferromanganese crusts, seafloor massive sulfides and other seabed mineral deposits. The system is ideal for recovering targeted core samples at extreme depths. The multi-tool magazine and tooling options add flexibility and time savings to deep sea exploration operations.
