The use of pinless connections also increases dive time and reduces transit time through the water column, creating not only gains in efficiency but also gains in safety; a lower number of required launch and recovery cycles reduces personnel risk offshore. Two Norwegian firms have partnered to improve the efficiency of vessel-based, offshore remotely operated vehicle ( DOF Subsea ) operations. Integrated subsea services provider ROV and DOF Subsea , a subsea solutions firm, are developing and testing WiSub 's pinless connection system, which delivers power and information across a seawater gap, easing mating tolerances and removing the possibility of short circuits. ROV system connections and reconfigurations can be completed both on deck and at the subsea work site.
