Doppler Velocity Logs (DVLs) are an essential navigational aid used in subsea operations where GPS is unavailable. DVLs use the Doppler effect to provide estimates of velocity relative to the seabed, preventing errors from accumulating within a vehicle’s navigation system.
Lithium-ion batteries are used for a wide range of activities and applications in the oceans such as to power vehicles, sensors, and energy storage systems, as well as to electrify oil and gas production. Kiel-based SubCtech has solutions for a sustainable, reliable, and safe energy supply with Li-Ion batteries.
There is a growing market demand for an enabling technology which is the nerve center of a reliable and resilient electrical grid: intelligent battery storage. Responsible for augmenting output from resources such as wind and solar, helping to reduce the environmental impact of power generation and improving grid efficiency, battery storage is experiencing rapid growth on a worldwide scale.
Maintaining flow assurance is a critical part of operations planning for oil and gas pipelines. The daily cost of unplanned maintenance and shutdowns can quickly accumulate. Any number of things can set back successful operations, including damage to the pipeline from corrosion, pitting, and cracking, as well as buildup from hydrates and heavy wax.
