Our Solutions

No more guesswork. Just technically valuable data.

Our methods provide the most accurate data-sets achievable and enable a service that satisfies the most stringent demands and answers your very specific technical questions in a simple yet comprehensive manner.

In most offshore 3D scanning campaigns, we don’t tell our customers what the accuracy should be – we ask them.

3D Scanning

Scan for Retro-Fit Design

We leave no room for substandard data. 3D scanning informs the process of designing a retrofit part and is completed to a customer-defined level of accuracy. Our clients use 3D data to design a solution, providing technical assurance whilst mitigating expensive delays by ensuring a first-time-fit.

Dimensional Analysis

Our Dimensional Analysis service is certified for its reliability and precision. In 2022, we were the first UK company to achieve accuracy accreditation by Lloyds Register, by providing precise link measurements with a maximum error of 0.05mm (50 microns) via 3D photogrammetry.

Inspections & Assessments

From bent and buckled risers to hairline cracks on bilge keel welds, our commitment to accurate 3D data has helped our customers confirm that their hardware remains serviceable, or that the repair campaign will be based on demonstrably reliable 3D information.

Reverse Engineering

Creating or confirming CAD (Computer Aided Design) information via 3D scan data is second nature to our team. We can verify the available CAD information or use 3D scan data to create CAD from scratch where no technical data exists.

Emergency 3D Data

Working swiftly or remotely to retrieve 3D data in an emergency can save future effort and provide instant scene preservation. In urgent situations, we can examine your list of available imaging equipment and advise if it is suitable to meet your stated need and provide expert advice. We assist customers in emergencies by maximising the capabilities of whatever imaging equipment is available at the worksite. We have even delivered the resulting 3D data and analysis to the shore-based team before the vessel returns to port.

3D Data from Legacy Sources

Our 3D legacy data service can work with everything from a subsea inspection on old VHS video tape to precise CVI (Close Visual Inspection) data, and provide 3D data that accurately represents the hardware at the time of data collection.

Custom Tooling

We have a strong portfolio in designing bespoke capture solutions for 3D scanning in tight, awkward, or hard-to-reach spaces when off-the-shelf equipment is not capable of meeting your demands.

Data Fusion

There are various options available for collecting 3D data, and we have demonstrated on many occasions that they can be successfully combined. Acoustic technology is best suited for quickly scanning large areas of the seabed. LiDAR can provide the same ability above water and photogrammetry can be used to collect the high-detail, close-range information from above or below the waterline. We refer to the process of combining them into a single, measurable 3D dataset as 'data fusion'.

Consultation

We are often chosen as the primary contractors for multi-disciplinary projects, allowing the core sub-teams to concentrate on achieving the results that relate to their speciality. Contractors rely on us to ask the right questions and collaborate with the best suited providers to ensure the best and most efficient outcome.
