Independent project services consultancy, Cambla, has launched new software for the oil and gas industry, the Schedule Animation Tool (S.A.T).
The company will unveil its new technology during Subsea Expo, an oil and gas event which will take place between February 11-13, 2015 at the Aberdeen Exhibition and Conference Centre. The multi-user software has been developed to meet the needs of businesses operating within the subsea sector, reducing man-hours and offering cost savings, the developer said.
S.A.T provides a visual representation of a vessel’s location and planned activities, making it easier to understand Simultaneous Operations (SIMOPs), construction sequences and plan global subsea and marine operations. Transforming the way that vessel schedules are analyzed before, during and after performing subsea operations, the software is capable of identifying occasions when vessels are required to be in close proximity to other vessels or installations. In addition, it can generate a list of relevant SIMOPs or Close Approach Risk Assessments required to be carried out in advance.
