UK Electronic Solutions has announces that it has signed a contract with Dalby Offshore to install its motion and impact monitoring system, Oceanic Dynamics, on an additional three of its Crew Transfer Vessels (CTVs). This follows a trial of the system on-board Dalby Offshore’s largest CTV, the Dalby Ouse.
Dalby Offshore’s 10-strong fleet primarily supports offshore wind farms. In order to use such a vessel Dalby Offshore must closely monitor and report on various aspects of operation, including wave heights, impact forces, etc., to assure customers of the safety of sensitive wind farm assets during docking procedures. Oceanic Dynamics allows Dalby Offshore to monitor and report on impact, fuel efficiency, engine data, route information, and the dynamic stability of the vessel within the water. It also allows for the monitoring and recording of crew transfers at all times via an HD CCTV system. All information is stored locally, and can be tranferred via GSM or Wi-Fi when the vessel is within range of the shore, or transferred live via a satellite connection.
