Systems
Often known as EMS/EMP systems, Weather Stations or MetOcean systems are a very important tool for many users onshore and offshore.
Environmental Monitoring Systems using the well proven DADAS software from have been in use for more than 25 years and have an excellent track record.
We have been involved in developing Helideck Monitoring Systems since these systems were first introduced.
New systems will comply with all known rules and regulations worldwide, including the CAA CAP 437, NORMAM 27 and the Norwegian Standard for HMS systems.
We have built and installed a number of Motion Measurement Systems based upon our own advanced AIM-sensor – Adaptive Inertial Matrix. This sensor is using sophisticated MEMS technology to detect and measure accurately accelerations,
angular motions, vertical and horizontal motions in all types of structures.
A full 6 DOF – 6 Degrees Of Freedom – sensor for long period motion measurements for marine applications are available as well as matrix based measurement systems.
Current measurement / Current profile
We have built and installed a number of Motion Measurement Systems based upon our own advanced AIM-sensor – Adaptive Inertial Matrix.
This sensor is using sophisticated MEMS technology to detect and measure accurately accelerations,
A system equipped with profiling current sensors (ADCPs) can give vital information about these parameters.
DADAS software has simple and user-friendly displays that will give the user a quick and useful understanding of the situation.
Structural Monitoring Systems / Hull Stress Monitoring Systems
Structures can be monitored for fatigue or damages using traditional strain gauges or using fibre optic strain gauges – often in combination with acceleration or motion measurements. Such systems is also very often integrated with Environmental
Monitoring Systems in order to correlate data for data analysis purposes.
Hull Stress Monitoring Systems for larger vessels can also be designed and installed suitable for each specific project.
Life Extension Systems
Many offshore or marine structure can have their operational lifetime substantially extended providing that some vital parameters are monitored, and data are analysed and reported.
We can design and install systems for monitoring such parameters adapted to the structure in question.
Meteorological and Oceanographic sensors
We have vast experience in selecting, operating and maintaining the best sensors for the tough operational conditions offshore. Only sensors with an excellent track record will be recommended for use in such critical applications.
We can supply everything from single sensors to complete turn-key systems.
Service work and calibration services
We have a well-qualified team of offshore service engineers, including experienced and certified support engineers onshore, who can undertake service work on all makes and models of MetOcean systems, EMP / EMS systems, HMS systems, meteorological and oceanographic sensors, etc. Our workshop is equipped for servicing and calibrating most kinds of sensors and instrumentation and has a fast-track supply line for spare parts.
Upgrading older systems
We can perform an unconditional survey of older MetOcean systems – regardless of supplier – to evaluate the condition of the system and the need for upgrades.
A thorough report is issued after the survey that documents the status of existing equipment, proposes upgrades if necessary and shows how such upgrades can result in less service and maintenance.
