Kongsberg to Host FEMME Multibeam User Conference

Kongsberg Maritime has invited all users of multibeam survey systems to the 32nd edition of its biennial Forum for Exchange of Mutual Multibeam Experiences (FEMME 2015) in Singapore from November 17-19, 2015.

The event will feature a schedule of technical product and application papers, with the majority of presentation slots reserved for its multibeam user customers, so that they may share technical experience and insight with industry colleagues. Kongsberg Maritime is now accepting paper abstracts for consideration at FEMME 2015.

“FEMME is all about the users and we’re looking forward to finding out what they have in store for us following today’s call for papers,” said Helge Uhlen, Sales Product Manager, Kongsberg Maritime. “We’re looking for papers that describe innovative new applications of our multibeam systems, specific insight into niche topics or reviews of significant projects that can teach the industry how to work smarter.”

Kongsberg Maritime multibeam users are encouraged to submit paper abstracts covering different applications, both traditional and new. Topics covered to a high-technical level at the last FEMME included logging, displaying and processing water column data, also referred to as mid-water column data, and seabed backscatter data.

All paper abstracts will be accepted and reviewed, and successful applicants will be informed after the submission deadline of February 1, 2015. Applicants should send paper abstracts to: [email protected].
