Precise Positioning For BP Vessels

BP will continue to use Veripos precision positioning for the energy company's turret monitoring system aboard its floating production storage and offloading unit in the West Shetland Basin, BP Schiehallion (UK).  

With the extended contract, Veripos remains responsible for supplying the vessel with its dual-beam standard positioning service to ensure metre-level accuracies, with seamless correction data being delivered by two independent satellite broadcasts.

 

Meanwhile, identical standard services will also continue to be provided by Veripos under a separate contract awarded by Aberdeen-based Vector Offshore for positioning of four regional support vessels on long-term charter to BP, Caledonian Vigilance, Caledonian Victory, Caledonian Vanguard and Caledonian Vision.
