Disclosed is a subsea automotive system including a unit for moving coaxially along a pipeline, an elongated body, at least three bearing members each bearing in a mobile, rolling or sliding manner on the pipeline to roll/slide in a stable manner at least parallel to the pipeline, an articulated side arm supporting a bearing member, enabling the bearing member to move transversely to the body between an open position for installing the system on the pipeline and uninstalling the system, and also an operating position in which the bearing member supported by the articulated arm is folded back to bear against the pipeline to form, with the other bearing members, a movable connection between the body and pipeline, at least three of the bearing members applied, in the operating position, to the pipeline in radial directions angularly offset about the axis of the pipe and separate from one another.
