The advantages of the ROVs :

- Can work in any water depths.

- More abilites to perform mechanical, inspection and recording tasks.

The disadvantages:

- ROVs are slower to perform tasks comparing to divers.

- Using ROVs are more costly than using divers.

But  i will choose to work with ROVs in deep seas and to perform accurate inspection services.

For shallow water and emergency tasks i will use team of divers.

of coarse the advantages are higher than the disadvantages.

ROV allow for some activities to be done which my be impossible to be achived without ROV or if it is possible ,it may associated with high risk for the human diver.
