BMT and Sonardyne to Deliver Step-change in Subsea Monitoring
Leading engineering consultancy BMT and subsea technology company Sonardyne International have signed an agreement to provide advanced integrated marine-integrity monitoring solutions to the oil and gas industry. The official Teaming Agreement between BMT and Sonardyne, announced in September at the Rio Oil & Gas exhibition and conference in Brazil, will allow the two companies to collaboratively provide smarter and more efficient through-life solutions for monitoring and managing critical subsea assets, including drilling and production risers, moorings and wellheads.
Subsea integrity data
By jointly offering BMT’s monitoring and analysis capabilities with Sonardyne’s expertise in autonomous, long-endurance data collection and through-water telemetry, clients globally will benefit from a wider range of options to bring more subsea integrity data to their desktops faster, making it easier for them to make safety critical decisions at the right time.
BMT and Sonardyne already have a strong working relationship and see this agreement as an opportunity to offer a further step-change in the solutions provided to customers. BMT will bring 30 years of marine instrumentation design experience and extensive integration expertise to the working arrangement, while Sonardyne will provide access to subsea data logging and communication technology including its SMART low-power subsea sensors.
