Wilson ASA Goes Paperless

  06/09/2010
Transas Marine Norway AS has secured a framework agreement with Wilson ASA for supply of ECDIS for paperless navigation on eighteen new vessels under order and upgrade of the remaining fleet. A dual installation of Transas Navi-Sailor 4000 MFD ECDIS fulfills the ECDIS carriage requirements and is approved for paperless navigation.



The Wilson fleet consists of 113 vessels, ranging from 1,500 - 10,000 DWT, and Wilson is among the largest shipping operators within the European short-sea segment. Under this contract, Transas has already delivered dual Transas Navi-Sailor 4000 MFD ECDIS for two vessels, WILSON NORTH and WILSON NICE.


Transas ECDIS is a "multifunction" system that reads and presents all official chart formats. Transas Admiralty Digital Services (TADS) provides the best coverage of official charts available, a service that will include temporary and preliminary (T&P) chart corrections.

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
