Abstract The article describes the system of intellectual support for remotely operated vehicle (ROV) operators, which provides the precise movements control of the ROV and its depressor-weight along the specified trajectories, even in the case when the supporting vessel has no a dynamic positioning system. Proposed system provides operators with visual recommendations and warnings, which are formed in real time on the basis of expert evaluation of the information obtained from various sensors and navigation systems. Software and hardware implementation of the system was carried out for the working class ROV Comanche 18. Experimental studies of the developed system were carried out during an expedition to the Bering Sea on board of the research vessel Akademik M.A. Lavrentyev.
