Sonardyne Joins ETI Consortium for North Sea CCS Monitoring System
Summary
This autonomy allows measurements to be made over long periods of time and a wide range of sensors for the detection of CO2 can be interfaced and integrated, providing an ultra-low power platform for up to five years unattended deployment.Graham Brown, Divisional Director - Oil and Gas at Sonardyne said, “We’re delighted to be participating as the technical lead contractor in this project for a marine and subsurface monitoring system alongside other such prestigious organisations.Other members of the Consortium are lead participant Fugro GEOS Ltd., the National Environment Research Council (NERC – as represented by the National Oceanography Centre and British Geological Society), Plymouth Marine Laboratory and the University of Southampton.Using technologies already proven in the offshore and oceanographic industries, combined with new remote sensing technology, the Consortium will develop an integrated leak detection system that is capable of both wide area coverage by AUVs/ASVs (Autonomous Underwater Vehicles/Autonomous Surface vehicles) and continuous automated monitoring of high risk areas.This autonomy allows measurements to be made over long periods of time and a wide range of sensors for the detection of CO2 can be interfaced and integrated, providing an ultra-low power platform for up to five years unattended deployment.Graham Brown, Divisional Director - Oil and Gas at Sonardyne said, “We’re delighted to be participating as the technical lead contractor in this project for a marine and subsurface monitoring system alongside other such prestigious organisations.Combined with our AMTs and the complementary technologies of the other Consortium members, we are confident that over the three year project plan, we can develop an accurate, efficient and robust monitoring system for North Sea CCS storage sites.” Contact Information Sonardyne Kelly Friend 01252 872288 www.sonardyne.com Click here to view the list of recent Press Releases from Sonardyne Promote Your Business Press Release Pricing Email this page to a friend
