Marine & Offshore - Tailored technology for underwater monitoring, profiling and surveillance
Marine & Offshore
Underwater surveillance systems are essential for covering offshore assets, including oil platforms, wind farms, and underwater pipelines. These systems are termed critical infrastructure; persistent monitoring and real-time data transmission support maintaining operational efficiency and safety.
- Seafloor and environmental monitoring: DOMUS provides advanced solutions to detect changes in the seafloor and surrounding environment that may affect the stability and integrity of offshore structures, including acoustic, movement, and vibration monitoring.
- Targeted coverage: Strategically placed core monitoring points cover defined areas, acknowledging the practical limitations of overseeing large subsea regions.
- Customisable instrumentation: We offer flexible solutions tailored to specific project needs, integrating existing equipment to enhance surveillance and monitoring capabilities.
Challenges in Underwater Infrastructure Surveillance
-
Environmental variability: Shifting seabed conditions, strong currents, and sediment movement can affect the stability of offshore structures. Detecting and interpreting these changes in time is essential to prevent structural damage or failure.
-
Limited coverage range: Continuous monitoring of vast subsea areas is not feasible. Surveillance must rely on strategically placed monitoring points, which require careful planning to ensure key zones are effectively covered.
-
Integration with existing systems: Offshore sites often operate with legacy equipment or systems from multiple vendors. Ensuring compatibility and seamless integration with new surveillance technologies can be complex and time-consuming.
How DOMUS can help
By offering targeted coverage, adaptable instrumentation, and support for integration with existing systems, DOMUS helps operators monitor offshore infrastructure more effectively. It supports safer, more informed operations in environments where continuous oversight is challenging but essential.
