What is Offshore Surveying?

Offshore Surveying is concerned with meeting the surveyrequirements of the offshore industry. Broadly speaking, these

are:

the positioning of vessels, drilling ships, platforms, etc the surveying of seabed and sub-seabed features prior to

the installation of rigs, platforms, pipelines, etc

the ongoing inspection of installations

What does the Energy Industry do?

Oil & Gas Life Cycle

Offshore Surveying plays a major contribution in theexploration and appraisal for, development of, andproduction from oil and gas fields around the world:

Exploration

Locating oil and gas via seismic acquisition process is reliant on various forms of offshoresurvey and positioning: 2D seismic single streamer 3D seismic multiple streamer 4D seismic time lapse survey

Appraisal Exploration and Appraisal Drilling the precise positioning of

rigs and anchors in the correct places

Mobile rigs comprise of two types:

Jackup rigs: Shallow water (

Field Development From Plan to Reality requires many forms of survey and

precise positioning:

Production Inspection, Repair and Maintenance (IRM) surveyors play

key role in the integrity of equipment and facilities: Acoustic pipeline inspection

Remote Operated Vehicle (ROV) pipeline inspection

ROV structural inspection

Inshore pipeline inspection

Diver repairs

Decommissioning

Installations:

Positioning and navigation support

Pre decommissioning surveys

Hazard notification

Post decommissioning surveys

Updating of infrastructure databases

Pipelines and Cables:

Positioning and navigation support

Monitoring adjacent infrastructure integrity

Post decommissioning survey inspection

Updating of infrastructure databases
