Bergen Oilfield Extends Positioning Contract

  18/03/2010
Veripos has been awarded an extension to its existing master services contract with Bergen Oilfield Services (BOS), one of Norway's principal seismic survey contractors operating worldwide. The extended contract covers continuing supply of a complete range of positioning services and equipment for BOS's three specialist seismic exploration vessels, BOS Angler, BOS Arctic and BOS Atlantic.

 

Utilising Veripos' Ultra Precise Point Positioning service for decimetre-level accuracies supported by Verify-QC software for real-time monitoring and quality control of positioning data, each vessel is also equipped with Veripos LD2-G2 integrated mobile receiver systems.

 

Supported by Veripos GNSS positioning, BOS has recently completed a 10,000km 2D seismic data acquisition program offshore Guinea, northwest Africa on behalf of Hyperdynamics Corporation. Meanwhile, the Norwegian company's BOS Angler vessel is due to carry out major 3D surveys for ONGC and Cairn off the east and west coasts of India.

Hydrographic Survey of Riverbed Erosion

Members of the US Geological Survey were filmed while 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 analyses 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. 


Gauge height at the Williston gauge was approximately 27.65 feet when this video was taken. Additional information about the USGS streamgauge at Williston is available at http://waterdata.usgs.gov/nd/nwis?program=nwisman&site_no=06330000
