Hydroacoustic sensor know-how developer GeoAcoustics has launched the GeoPulse 2 Sub-Backside Profiler, whereas additionally asserting the brand new Integration Between GeoPulse Compact and Geo-suite seismic acquisition software program.
Designed for numerous functions together with pipeline detection, geological surveys, dredging surveys, environmental assessments, and buried object detection, GeoPulse 2 is a extremely versatile device constructed on 40 years of hydroacoustic know-how improvement by GeoAcoustics.
GeoPulse 2 is ready to attain into deeper waters for the acquisition of important knowledge for the event and operation of offshore wind farms, and represents a is a drop-in substitute for the trade workhorse GeoPulse Pinger utilizing the 5430A transmitter.
It’s absolutely digital and options a wide range of waveforms unavailable with the earlier technology of GeoPulse Pinger.
The GeoPulse 2 is offered in 4, 9 or 16 transducer configurations giving an operational depth vary down to five,000m. The system can obtain resolutions as much as 6 cm and penetrating depths of as much as 80 meters in nice clay and 20 meters in sand, the corporate claims.
“GeoPulse Sub-Backside Profilers are broadly thought to be reliable and easy-to-operate for the shallow water sector, and we’re thrilled to allow operation in a lot deeper waters. Our clients can count on the identical workhorse-like reliability and high quality of information as skilled with our shallow water GeoPulse methods, however with the added flexibility to take their surveys a lot additional offshore to assist the constructing of important new wind farms and different infrastructure,” mentioned Richard Dowdeswell, Chief Working Officer at GeoAcoustics.
As well as, GeoPulse Compact Sub-Backside Profiler from GeoAcoustics is now appropriate for the primary time with the favored Geo Marine Survey System developed Geo-Suite acquisition software program.
The mix introduces a brand new GIS-based resolution for the acquisition, processing, interpretation and 3D visualization of information acquired by GeoPulse Compact.
Geo Marine Survey System has created a brand new graphical consumer interface (GUI) to allow the interoperation between GeoPulse Compact and the Geo-Suite Acquisition software program launch 2023R1.
The GUI, navigation system, and management for Heave Compensation in real-time included in Geo-Suite Acquisition scale back the time to configure all gadgets needed to amass high-quality knowledge utilizing the sub-bottom profiler.
“Planning to assemble a commercial-scale wind farm requires data of the seismo-stratigraphy of the primary meters of depth beneath the seabed at excessive decision. The pairing of GeoPulse Compact and Geo-Suite AllWorks was capable of ship the standard of information our purchasers wanted for this rapidly and simply,” mentioned Giuseppe Di Grigoli PhD, Operations Supervisor, Geo Bio Crew Group.
