How to make something neutrally buoyant?

Figure out the weight of the device (ROV, submarine,etc), and then the weight of the water displaced. When they are equal, the device is neutrally buoyant. However, usually engineers create a ROV with a slightly positive or negative bouyancy, personally I perfer a positivly buoyant ROV because if you lose power or the tether is cut the ROV will ascend back up to the top. A more simple answer is that when the gravity & buoyancy are equal it is neutrally buoyant

To improve location efforts for ship/plane/equipment salvage. It's much more cost effective and safer to locate something that's lost with an ROV than it is to put hardhat divers in the water for the same purpose. ROV's also have a much greater depth range and time at depth than divers do for search purposes.
