The apparatus and the method according to the present invention is not only adapted for bundling cables when reeling out the cables during deployment, but the apparatus and the method are adapted for removing a bundling element (13) from the cables when reeled in during recovery.

L'invention concerne un appareil et un procédé pour déployer un objet dans un fluide, par ex. dans la mer, au moyen d'au moins un premier (4) et un second câble (5) reliés à l'objet, l'appareil comportant des moyens de treuil pour enrouler et dérouler les câbles (4, 5), qui permettent de déplacer l'objet par rapport à l'appareil. L'invention est caractérisée en ce que l'appareil comprend un dispositif (10) pour regrouper les câbles en faisceau, lorsqu'ils sont déroulés, pour constituer un seul ensemble de câbles entre l'appareil et l'objet pendant leur déploiement. Selon la présente invention, l'appareil et le procédé ne sont pas seulement conçus pour regrouper les câbles en faisceau lorsqu'ils sont déroulés, mais également pour enlever des câbles un élément (13) de regroupement lorsqu'ils sont réenroulés.
