Meet the CARTHE Drifter
of CARTHE drifters. Moreover, the “drogue-less” torus float can be deployed alone for surface oil slick tracking purposes. An air-dropped version, using a biodegradable parachute, is coming out next year to increase the deployment capabilities of the instrument. Typical applications are physical and biological oceanography, search and rescue missions, marine pollution tracking, as well as surface current monitoring for the offshore industry and the Navy for purposes of navigation and operational risk reduction. More than 1,500 of these drifters were recently deployed
Work Class ROVs
ROVs examined here in part 2 of MTR’s ROV technology series. DOER Marine DOER’s H3000 is a midsize work class ROV. Designed for multimission use from a variety of platforms, the H3000 is well suited to underwater tasks where station keeping, maneuverability and power are key. Typical applications include deep-water survey, sampling, documentary filming, search/recovery/salvage, submersible support/rescue, ocean observatory support, oil/gas/alternative energy support, tunnel and aqueduct inspection. H3000 is rated for 3,000m standard. This versatile, powerful vehicle is designed to
Trelleborg Signs Framework Agreement with Statoil
have made us an important supplier in the oil and gas market, and we are looking forward to building our relations further with Statoil in a challenging, but yet exciting market. ” Elastopipe is the first corrosion-free, explosion, impact and jet fire resistant flexible piping system. Typical applications are deluge and sprinkler systems, utility and drain water systems, nitrogen distribution systems and chemicals and hydrocarbon transportation. The system is made of synthetic rubber with a robust design that gives the system high tolerance to impact, jet fire (+2,552 °F / +1,400 ˚C for
MacArtney Unveils Multiplexer at 2015 Ocean Business
a highly efficient link between surface and seabed. The NEXUS MK VII is highly configurable and allows for an easy upgrade and modification path when requirements change. Multiplexer options can be installed between jobs or even at sea without the need for an electronics workshop. Typical applications for the NEXUS MK VII will include ROV/ROTV systems requiring a HD video and multibeam sonar survey sensor setup, cable trencher systems, towed camera and sensor systems and seabed monitoring applications, including landers and observatory systems.

as small, low-cost alternatives to larger and more expensive FOG gyros. Gemini dual-axis surface mount MEMS accelerometers offer excellent bias stability and are available in both flat and orthogonal packages, and in five different dynamic ranges from ±0.85g to ±96g. Typical applications include precise ship positioning systems, stability control, guidance and navigation. Seamor Marine SEAMOR Marine designs and manufactures the subsea SEAMOR Observation/Inspection-class Remotely Operated Vehicles (ROVs), and related modular accessories and devices.
