Abstract:
The present invention relates to a device for supporting a seabed measurement with sea underwater system on ships. This device comprises a payload support with at least four docking areas distributed from front edge to rear edge of the payload support, wherein the first docking area comprises a multibeam sonar, the second docking area comprises an inertial measurement unit, and the fourth docking area comprises a sub-bottom profiler. Therefore, the present invention relates to the area of measurement systems with sensors useful for marine seabed surveying and mapping.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a laser scanning assembly (1), a corresponding vehicle, and the corresponding laser scanning method corresponding. The invention obtains a geometric characterization of the shape of a surface (100) based on the principle of triangulation. The assembly comprises: a laser light emitter (2), diffraction means (4) transforming the laser light into a planar fan configuration (6), redirecting means (8) redirecting the beam and projecting it onto the surface (100), a light receiver (10) capturing a scanning area (12) including the fan (6), and control means (14) controlling all these elements. The receiver (10) has its own processing means for detecting the illuminated points in the captured image. The redirecting means (8) are assembled so as to be rotational about at least one fixed shaft (16). The rotation of the first redirecting means (8) is controlled by said control means (14) in a manner that is synchronized with the remaining elements.
Abstract:
A system for sampling production well production fluids from a manifold interface panel on a subsea production manifold. In some embodiments, the system includes a remotely operated vehicle, a skid coupled to the remotely operated vehicle, a sample tank supported on the skid, and a fluid transfer pump operable to convey production fluid from at least one of the production wells through the manifold interface panel into the sample tank.
