Subsea Digitalization: Remote Control
number of new technologies are expected to play a pivotal role in the future of oil and gas production, advancing efficiency and environmental performance. Their digitalization will further these goals by providing remote control, optimized operations and enhanced decision-making capabilities.Enabling technology for that digitalization, such as subsea power and communications, continue to evolve, says Miguel Hernandez, Senior Vice President of Global Offshore at ABS, even though the subsea environment poses significant challenges. “Maintaining reliable communication links between subsea assets
Greensea IQ Contract to Further Develop USN Autonomous Vehicle
to demonstrate a production-ready edge processing configuration of Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) Workspace, called EOD Edge, deployed in Greensea’s IQNS, with the autonomy and Automatic Target Recognition (ATR) components. This contract extension signifies a closer step to providing this enabling technology to U.S. Navy EOD Technicians.IQNS provides an NVIDIA edge processor, integrated fiber optic gyro, aiding navigation sensors, and Greensea’s patented navigation solution for small underwater robots. IQNS is designed as an upgrade solution for systems currently running Greensea’s
Project Launched to Deploy Thermoplastic Composite Pipe Flowlines, Risers in Brazil's Pre-Salt Area
to the Oil & Gas Industry. "The unique program will manufacture and pilot the installation of two TCP systems, one for TCP Flowlines and the second for TCP Risers. This will result in the industry’s first program to mature the TCP Riser to TRL-6 (API 17N), proving it is an enabling technology and ready for deployment," Strohm said. The TCP Riser requires no buoyancy modules and reduces the total installed cost - Credit: StrohmPrototypes by 2024Strohm CEO Oliver Kassam, said: “This is a very significant and exciting moment as we join forces with Petrobras and
SMTP Helps to Power Future Ocean Tech
other AUVs, the “Sunfish” is capable of mapping and monitoring its environment to create its own mission plan. This dramatically refines what can be accomplished autonomously, exploring diverse systems from coral reefs to the undersides of glaciers. The Sunfish may also prove to be an enabling technology for scaling aquaculture and wind power by simplifying inspections and maintenance.In just the past two years, SMTP has aided a wide breadth of ocean technology and conservation companies to reach their potential, creating both a virtual and a physical hub for the ocean community. All together
DOLPHIN: Enabling Technology for Acoustic Systems
and trials are of great interest. While the core technology is ready, the many layers of product and “system of systems” developments will evolve over time. A robust ecosystem of hardware manufacturers, software developers and end users must mature around the underlying, enabling technology. With appropriate, collaborative effort, it is reasonable to assume that many products and applications will become DOLPHIN enabled.Author BiographiesJustin Manley is a technologist and executive with experience in startup, public corporation, academic, and public sectors.

of an integrated approach for nearshore mapping alongside with traditional survey methods,” said Dr. Marco Filippone, Chief Hydrographer at Fugro. “We can use SDB to augment existing technology as a benchmark for high definition data sets and with this new technique develop together enabling technology, processing workflows and machine learning – and we can really speed up the process providing the final users with a product that can be used for their needs.”The next SDB Day will be announced shortly
World’s First Decommissioning Collaboration Tool
past the planning stages, through to execution and close out of a project, and is the first system available specifically for the decommissioning market. It will enable operators and contractors to share information effectively, as decommissioning steps up over the coming decades. iVISION is an enabling technology, and without it we anticipate that the industry will struggle to find an efficient, cost-effective way to collaborate. “It also addresses learning, with visual content playing a significant part of this. Step-by-step video tutorials are included, which are filmed on location, and

power, it has a very large capacity with a two terabyte recorder, it has a very high bandwidth and probably the most important thing is because we started off in an acoustic domain, we are getting a very low soft noise. We worked very hard on that,” he said. Moloney calls it “an enabling technology that can be configured in any fashion a customer wants.” It can tethered to a bottom mooring. The equipment is designed so modules can be added to meet different requirements. There are deep and shallow versions of the housing and can provide real time data streaming when integrated
