Entry-level Requirements ROV Personnel18/06/2009 |
| The International Marine Contractors Association (IMCA) has published a reviewed and updated version of their ‘Entry Level Requirements and Basic Introductory Course Outline for New Remotely Operated Vehicle (ROV) Personnel' (IMCA R 002 Rev. 2), which reflects technological and operational developments since the initial document was published in January 2000. |
|
The guidance on entry-level criteria for those undergoing initial ROV training courses is clarified and repeated in a new checklist format. This is intended to make the requirements clear and ensure that those offering, or considering undergoing training courses, are aware of the skill requirements of potential employers and thus their future employment prospects.
The new version of ‘Entry Level Requirements and Basic Introductory Course Outline for New Remotely Operated Vehicle (ROV) Personnel' can be downloaded free of charge from IMCA's members-only website; printed copies cost GBP2.50 for members and GBP5 for non-members (plus 20% for delivery outside Europe).

Hydrographic Survey for Riverbed Erosion |
U.S. Geological Survey were out on the Missouri River at Williston, North Dakota, USA, performing a hydrographic survey to monitor the state of riverbed erosion. They were using a multibeam echo sounder which transmits sound energy and analyzes the return signal (echo) that has bounced off the riverbed or other objects. Multibeam sonars emit sound waves from directly beneath a ship's hull to produce fan-shaped coverage of the riverbed.
