Underwater operations are carried out by placing an object (22, 23) at a desired position underwater by pulling it down through the water to an anchoring point 14 and then moving the object from the anchoring point to the desired position. The object may be mounted on a carrier (21) and the apparatus comprising the object and the carrier may be pulled down by a winching device (1, 8, 12) secured to an underwater structure 30 and comprising a winch (11) and a connector 14 for engagement with a connector (27) of the carrier. The object may be equipment for cutting, turning, joining or moving an underwater pipe (30). <IMAGE> |
