Combining innovations in human-assisted autonomous control of ...

HydroSurv Unmanned Survey (UK) Ltd, (_HydroSurv_) is building upon the successes of its '_Robotics for a Safer World_' Demonstrator project by developing and showcasing a transformative environmental monitoring solution for the offshore renewable energy sector in collaboration with Sonardyne International Ltd - a world-leading underwater acoustic position...

"This project will improve the navigational accuracy of autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) helping to further reduce the dependency on offshore infrastructure for wide area surveys of challenging marine environments. This will be achieved by a combination of three novel techniques: 1. Using enhanced autonomy to increase the accuracy of Long BaseLine (L...

Fault tolerant, high availability navigation systems used in the oil and gas industry today can already be considered automated. However, there are always at least two people on watch on typical mobile offshore drilling unit (MODU) as the Dynamic Positioning systems still rely on human intervention to take action when automatic fault detection and decisio...

An analysis of the performance of the transducer used in our sound speed sensor, particularly under conditions when deployed subsea and investigation into any physical changes that may occur.

ASV, NOC and Sonardyne are working together to deliver an innovative and game changing offshore pipeline survey system. Utilising the benefits of autonomous vehicles on the surface and underwater to make a step change in operational cost and safety. ASV's autonomous surface vehicle C-Enduro will provide navigational updates and mission planning to NOC's A...

This programme combines unmanned surface vessels (USVs), unmanned underwater vehicles (UUVs) and novel communications technology into an integrated system to provide a means of conducting low cost shore based full water column marine surveys. Success will accelerate the wider adoption of unmanned systems and will enable long term, low-cost survey and moni...
