Its maintenance will be cheaper than that of traditional platforms because —since it is managed by remote control— it will not need offices or infrastructure for workers.

For this reason, its dimensions and weight will also be smaller. Company representatives indicate that the new platform will be able to work in the most extreme weather conditions.
