More Information
Summary:A resource extraction system includes a plurality of access points disposed on a plurality of underwater production assets. The plurality of access points are communicatively coupled via a wired connection to a data processing system located above-sea and configured to wirelessly communicate underwater. The resource extraction system also includes an underwater vehicle that has communication circuitry configured to wirelessly communicatively couple the underwater vehicle to the plurality of access points to establish a connection with the data processing system via at least one of the plurality of access points. The underwater vehicle also includes processing circuitry operatively coupled to the communication circuitry.
