Over many years Subsea 7 has purchased significant numbers of Kongsberg MRU-5s, which are used to support a diverse range of activities including dynamic positioning, helideck monitoring, surface and sub-surface positioning, attitude control and multibeam survey. The latest generation MRU-5 systems will be integrated with Subsea 7 vessels' Seapath and HiPAP systems to ensure optimal positioning accuracy and performance on deepwater projects.
The Kongsberg Seatex MRU (Motion Reference Unit) utilises inertial navigation grade accelerometers and several high-quality gyros to measure roll, pitch, yaw and heave motion in marine applications such as motion compensation for multibeam surveying, orientation and attitude measurements for AUVs/ROVs, hydroacoustic positioning and ocean wave measurements.
