UCO was established in 2017 to provide ROV and Diving Services to the Aquaculture, Offshore and Inshore industries. The main focus of the company has been the aquaculture industry, developing a tool for daily mort recovery - the Foover. Designed by Underwater Contracting Ltd (UCO) the first Foover, which combines ROV technology with a unique recovery system, went into the water in December 2017. In its operations since then, the system has proven that it can achieve total mort recovery more reliably and cost-effectively than anything else on the market while improving the environment and habitat of the stock. Now working across Scotland, the Foover has been successfully operating in all conditions from the strong tidal currents off Shetland to farms in some of the remotest areas of the Western Isles. Planned growth will see the Foover fleet expand to 10 in 2019 with continuing ongoing expansion. The capabilities of the Foover go far beyond mort recovery and it can be fitted with additional tools enabling it to carry out other subsea tasks including water quality sampling, underwater inspection and maintenance, environmental sample collection and seaweed recovery. One of the most exciting developments currently being deployed is a marine plastics recovery system which will used to recover and collect ocean and waterborne plastics.
