Kongsberg Maritime Launches ScanFuse Powered by Qii.AI

Kongsberg Maritime’s Sensors and Robotics Division has released ScanFuseTMpowered by Qii.AI, a web-based software application that enables Civil Engineers to create comprehensive mosaics of maritime assets above and below the waterline by harnessing the power of artificial intelligence and machine learning.Civil Engineers use sonar images to assess the structural integrity of waterfront facilities and structures such as port wharfs and berths, bridge piers and dams. These images assist engineers to determine whether hydraulic scour threatens the structure, identify degradation of the materials

Wintershall Noordzee Deploys Wärtsilä Software to Boost Offshore Safety

Dutch offshore oil and gas operator Wintershall Nordzee has recently seen Wärtsilä's Navi-Harbour WebVTS 5.0 software application for its platform in the Dutch North Sea.The software features an early warning system to avoid allisions between the offshore platforms and vessels in their vicinity. It works by providing remote access to Automatic Identification System (AIS) or Vessel traffic Service (VTS) data sources to maintain constant and full situational awareness, using a standard internet browser. "The WebVTS decision support tools effectively mitigate potential marine

Diver6 Gen2 for Diver Communication, Awareness

Diver6 system. With a smaller form factor and faster communication protocol, divemasters will receive diver situational awareness information faster and more reliable. The new hardware reduces size and weight, is easier to mount, and continues to operate with Shearwater dive computers.The Diver6 software application has been enhanced to work seamlessly with the Subsea acoustic modems. A new streamlined data protocol provides greater reliability in data transmissions. The software also includes enhancements to charts, diver operations (assist and recall) and diver status as well.Diver6 continues to advance

Navy Divers to Have Automated Logging from Worn Dive Computers

Scott Brodeur, Naval Expeditionary Combat Command.“Scott has completed over a thousand dives during his career and he recognized the need to make the logging and reporting process more efficient for his peers,” said Jason Payne, TechSolutions acting program manager.The SBDA 100 is a software application on a ruggedized tablet used to log, compute and accurately compile dive-profile data.The data, collected from a wrist watch that divers wear during operations called a Navy Diver Computer, includes dive site conditions, equipment used by the divers, dive events, such as, when a diver left

New Glider Piloting Software from Teledyne Webb Research

the Slocum G2 glider and Slocum hybrid glider, has released its new glider piloting software, the Slocum Fleet Mission Control Software (SFMC).   SFMC is a software suite used to manage multiple TWR Slocum glider deployments around the world. SFMC builds on the traditional Dock Server software application and provides a web based front end that allows for collaboration among multiple glider pilots.   TMR said the new SFMC software suite offers customers some key benefits including active vehicle tracking and mission planning, consolidated data management, the ability to access piloting

SensorView Reduces Non-productive Rig Time at Ichthys

leading to rig non-productive time were incurred. To avoid such delays, INPEX requested that Neptune gather real-time positioning and heading information on each spool as it was being manoeuvred.   The requirement was met using SensorView, Sonardyne’s dedicated sensor monitoring software application. It can be used in parallel with 6G acoustic positioning systems such as Fusion, or as a standalone solution for cost-effective remote monitoring and subsea data harvesting projects.   At Ichthys, SensorView was mobilized on one of the rigs and interfaced with a Dunker 6 transceiver

Sonardyne’s new Connect software for LBL metrology campaigns will be making its debut, as will the latest updates for Ranger 2 USBL. SensorView, a new software application developed for accessing raw sensor data direct from 6G instruments will also be on display whilst optical and acoustic communications technologies, BlueComm and uComm, will be demonstrating wireless video and camera imagery transmission.  Outside on the water, Sonardyne will be hosting

ARGUS Enviable Technology, Unlimited Potential

spatial characteristics of the continuous stream of ARGUS data. In Use Today In a partnership with Cruisers’ Net and EarthNC, a beta release of ARGUS solution sets for the ICW compatible with OpenCPN is now happening. According to Hersey, OpenCPN is a capable open source PC Navigation software application in use by a large following of recreational and commercial boaters. Eventually, ARGUS intends to further develop the integration of ARGUS solution sets, making them available through Cruisers’ Net as a complement to other valuable information they provide.   There may be no

risk analysis software solution based on DNV’s more than three decades of experience within such analysis. DNV say that Safeti Offshore encapsulates their vast experience and knowledge within offshore quantitative risk analysis (QRA), contained within one all-encompassing software application to evaluate the full range of potential hazards. The QRA of offshore installations is a complex process and there are specific challenges resulting from congested layouts and limited separation of equipment. A spectrum of analysis methods exists, ranging from spread-sheets – with inherent
