The new division will provide optimized surveys to support both nearshore, inshore, and offshore deepwater development activities focused in the areas of offshore wind farms, pipeline routes, environmental site surveys, offshore hydrocarbon projects, and civil engineering surveys. 3D at Depth first commercialized Subsea LiDAR (SL) technology for the offshore industry in 2014. The Company focus has always been on 3D data excellence through innovative technology solutions that enable cost savings across any survey initiative without sacrificing data quality. The Geophysical Survey Service division is supported by a team of experienced LiDAR experts, 3D data specialists, geophysical, and hydrographic professionals providing a multi-disciplined approach to guide, identify and analyze data acquisition initiatives across survey campaigns. The team complements the Company\u2019s patented Subsea LiDAR (SL) laser technology and state-of-the-art innovations including 3D at Depth\u2019s comprehensive inspection and survey solution \u2013 recently announced in the January edition of the Wind Energy Network Magazine.<\/p>\n<div class=\"woocommerce \"><ul class=\"products columns-4\">\n<li class=\"entry product type-product post-9869 status-publish first instock product_cat-ea-outlook product_tag-drilling product_tag-natural-gas product_tag-oil product_tag-outlook product_tag-rigs product_tag-seismic product_tag-surveys product_tag-tanzania product_tag-upstream has-post-thumbnail sale downloadable virtual purchasable product-type-simple\">\n\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.oilnewskenya.com\/index.php\/\/product\/tanzania-upstream-sector-activity-outlook-2021-2022\/\" class=\"woocommerce-LoopProduct-link woocommerce-loop-product__link\">\n\t<span class=\"onsale\">Sale!<\/span>\n\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.oilnewskenya.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/COVERPAGE.jpg?resize=300%2C300&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"attachment-woocommerce_thumbnail size-woocommerce_thumbnail\" alt=\"Tanzania Upstream Sector Activity Outlook 2021-2022\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.oilnewskenya.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/COVERPAGE.jpg?resize=300%2C300&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.oilnewskenya.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/COVERPAGE.jpg?resize=100%2C100&amp;ssl=1 100w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.oilnewskenya.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/COVERPAGE.jpg?resize=60%2C60&amp;ssl=1 60w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.oilnewskenya.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/COVERPAGE.jpg?resize=144%2C144&amp;ssl=1 144w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><h2 class=\"woocommerce-loop-product__title\">Tanzania Upstream Sector Activity Outlook 2021-2022<\/h2>\n\t<span class=\"price\"><del aria-hidden=\"true\"><span class=\"woocommerce-Price-amount amount\"><bdi><span class=\"woocommerce-Price-currencySymbol\" translate=\"no\">&#36;<\/span>100.00<\/bdi><\/span><\/del> <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Original price was: &#036;100.00.<\/span><ins aria-hidden=\"true\"><span class=\"woocommerce-Price-amount amount\"><bdi><span class=\"woocommerce-Price-currencySymbol\" translate=\"no\">&#36;<\/span>60.00<\/bdi><\/span><\/ins><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Current price is: &#036;60.00.<\/span><\/span>\n<\/a><a href=\"\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9979?add-to-cart=9869\" aria-describedby=\"woocommerce_loop_add_to_cart_link_describedby_9869\" data-quantity=\"1\" class=\"button product_type_simple add_to_cart_button ajax_add_to_cart\" data-product_id=\"9869\" data-product_sku=\"\" aria-label=\"Add to cart: &ldquo;Tanzania Upstream Sector Activity Outlook 2021-2022&rdquo;\" rel=\"nofollow\" data-success_message=\"&ldquo;Tanzania Upstream Sector Activity Outlook 2021-2022&rdquo; has been added to your cart\">Add to cart<\/a>\t<span id=\"woocommerce_loop_add_to_cart_link_describedby_9869\" class=\"screen-reader-text\">\n\t\t\t<\/span>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<p>The Geophysical Survey Services division will leverage 3D at Depth\u2019s in-house electronics, system integration, and design capabilities as key differentiators. Subsea LiDAR 3D data sets will be merged with multibeam echosounder (MBES) multi-frequency, multi-spectral data acquisition and optical technologies which will enable more robust, higher quality output, maximizing results for the end client. Deepwater offshore, inshore, and nearshore projects will also have a clear advantage with 3D at Depth\u2019s integrated autonomous or tethered underwater vehicle and vessel mounted survey solution. The fully integrated solution incorporates a hovering supervised autonomous AUV\/ ROV package and takes full advantage of 3D at Depth\u2019s Subsea LiDAR (SL) laser with remote sensing technology &#8211; inertial navigation coupled with a multibeam echosounder and pipeline and hydrocarbon leak detection sensors. One tool, one set-up, one mobilization for multiple survey deliverables designed for efficient and integrated operations.<\/p>\n<p>The application of 3D at Depth\u2019s disruptive technology approach will enable it to expand into Geophysical survey services and is built around solving customer challenges in three areas: reducing environmental and human risks, lowering the project&#8217;s overall carbon footprint, and providing more robust data acquisition solutions. Specifically, the technology was developed from best practices in deep water survey campaigns to tackle the challenges of shallow water survey data collection and acquisition projects. Shallow water projects have exposure to lengthy weather events; crew and ship standby costs, sea-state challenges for collection, etc. All of which impact the time, budget, and quality of the data.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSince the company formation, we\u2019ve focused on developing flexible site and subsea asset characterization technologies designed to reduce crew time and dramatically lower CO2 emissions, while increasing the speed and quality of the results,\u201c stated Neil Manning, COO, 3D at Depth, Inc. \u201cBy deploying smaller, more efficient vessels that can be operated safely outside the 500m zone or offshore exclusion areas without sacrificing data quality is a differentiator. When we looked at the problem, we found a gap in the Geophysical market for this type of implementation that delivers cost-efficient surveys that still provide maximum data quality. Specifically, we pulled from our deep-water technology portfolio to fast-track a solution that meets the current requirements of the shallow water survey market. With over 600 offshore projects behind us and an increasing backlog, I am excited to push the flexible vehicle systems and in-house patented technology into the geophysical market. By moving the budget needle in the right direction for our customers&#8217; survey projects, we assist the offshore energy market in obtaining quality data for a reasonable price.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>3D at Depth\u2019s geophysical survey services recently completed a major project for post-hurricane NTL surveys in the Gulf of Mexico for a large U.S. based pipeline company. The project continues with expanded requirements. 3D at Depth will partner and act as the prime contractor to ensure best practices, and unsurpassed technical expertise is always on hand. Geophysical and geotechnical capabilities for the projects will be available from vessel mounted or subsea vehicle-mounted methods to allow for both long and close-range inspections which enable a blend of efficient data collection and high data quality to meet and exceed the demands from the end-users.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Range of Services includes:\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Rig and platform site surveys<\/li>\n<li>Geohazard surveys<\/li>\n<li>Wind farm site surveys<\/li>\n<li>Pre-engineering surveys<\/li>\n<li>Clearance surveys including UXO<\/li>\n<li>Ice gouge surveys<\/li>\n<li>Multibeam echosounder surveys in shallow and deep water<\/li>\n<li>Pre-and post-lay Pipeline route surveys<\/li>\n<li>Deepwater site developments<\/li>\n<li>LNG and FPSO offloading facilities<\/li>\n<li>Marine archaeology and cultural heritage sites<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"row\">\n<div class=\"col-lg-12\">\n<div id=\"3dgallery\" class=\"justified-gallery\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; 3D at Depth Inc., the world\u2019s expert in commercial Subsea LiDAR (SL) laser technology, and leading provider of underwater survey services and 3D data solutions, today announces the launch &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.oilnewskenya.com\/index.php\/3d-at-depth-launches-worldwide-offshore-geophysical-survey-services-business\/\" class=\"more-link\">Read More<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":24,"featured_media":9983,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[7442,11],"tags":[9086,9088,9090,901,9093,6767,9094,1428,9089,9091,6225,9087,9092],"class_list":["post-9979","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-countries","category-top-news","tag-3d-at-depth","tag-3d-data-sets","tag-auv","tag-flng","tag-geohazard-surveys","tag-geophysical-survey","tag-ice-gouge-surveys","tag-lng","tag-multibeam-echosounder","tag-rov","tag-subsea","tag-subsea-lidar","tag-uxo","entry"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.oilnewskenya.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/3D-at-Depth-Boat-System.jpg?fit=1400%2C787&ssl=1","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p5JWkQ-2AX","jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":10036,"url":"https:\/\/www.oilnewskenya.com\/index.php\/angola-fugro-awarded-geotechnical-and-environmental-surveys\/","url_meta":{"origin":9979,"position":0},"title":"ANGOLA: Fugro Awarded Geotechnical and Environmental Surveys","author":"","date":"March 2, 2021","format":false,"excerpt":"Fugro has been awarded multiple contracts by Eni Angola to carry out geotechnical and environmental surveys off the coast of Angola between now and May, and two Fugro vessels from their world\u2019s largest fleet of specialist geotechnical and geophysical vessels are currently active in the region.
