Environmental
Monitoring
Systems are
designed for
long-term
unattended
operation,
collecting
oceanographic,
meteorological
and vessel
performance data
from a wide
range of
instrumentation.
Clear displays
provide results
in engineering
units wherever
required,
onboard or
onshore.
WeatherMonitor
- a
real-time
event-driven,
web-based,
metocean
monitoring
software package
integrates the
real-time
collection,
display and
archiving of
this data in one
system.

Helideck
Motion Monitoring
Systems
|
The
Helideck Motion
Monitoring
system has been
tested under
extreme
conditions over
several years of
operation in the
North Sea. Fugro
have installed
more than 40
systems
worldwide.
The Helideck
systems:
- Meet
stringent
Norwegian
helicopter
operators'
standards
- Comply
with the
CAA, UKOOA
and UK
helicopter
operators
guidelines
- Give
direct
access to
helideck
conditions
for flight
crews
- Are
adaptable to
a range of
existing
sensors

Current
Monitoring-RIGADCP
Systems
RigADCP
has been
developed
specifically to
alleviate
exploration-drilling
disruption
caused by harsh
and complex
metocean
phenomena such
as strong and
highly variable
ocean currents.
This Rig-mounted
ADCP (Acoustic
Doppler Current
Profiler) is a
real-time
current
profiling system
that provides
data throughout
the water column
to alleviate
this disruption
and enhance the
safety and
efficiency of
offshore
operations, such
as:
- Diver and
ROV
activities
- Station
holding
- Operational
planning
- Riser
handling
- Oil spill
monitoring
In addition, the
current profile
data collected
during
exploration
operations is a
valuable data
source to
monitor riser
fatigue and
refine future
design of
risers, moorings
and production
facilities.
RigADCPs
can be adapted
to meet clients
exact
requirements.
Other ADCP
systems:
- SeisADCP
- real-time
current
profiling in
support of
seismic
operations.
- RovADCP-
near
real-time
current
profiling
throughout
the water
column using
ROVs as the
ADCP
platform.

SPM/CALM
Buoy Monitoring Systems
|
The
Single Point
Monitoring
system (SPM) is
specifically
designed to
monitor dominant
metocean
conditions
experienced at
CALM (Cantenary
Anchor Leg
Mooring) Buoys,
which operate in
hazardous areas
with low power
and low
maintenance
requirements.
This monitoring
system whilst
integrated into
the CALM Buoy is
able to provide
accurate
metocean
measurements in
support of
marine
operations. The
system comprises
of various
sensors
providing the
following
measurements:
- Wave
height &
period
- Current
speed and
direction
- Wind speed
and
direction
- Mooring
hawser
tension
- Buoy
heave, pitch
and roll
Data is
collected,
processed and
then transmitted
at regular
intervals to
portable
receivers
onboard loading
tankers and
vessels. This
information
assists pilots
when approaching
the buoy and
helps them to
make critical
operational
decisions.

Integrated
Marine Monitoring
Systems
Integrated
Marine
Monitoring
Systems measure
accurately any
physical
environmental
parameters and
the structural
response to such
environmental
forces. By
integrating the
information from
various
different
sensors into one
system they
provide clear,
accurate
information that
can be used for:
- operational
planning for
marine
operations,
- maximising
operational
windows,
- installation
control,
- fatigue
and
long-term
integrity
assessment,
- design and
performance
verification,
- predicting
responses to
extreme
environmental
force,
- calculation
of observed
response
amplitude
operators,
- environmental
early
warning
systems.
