Positioning Systems
Both terrestrial radio links and satellite links are used to broadcast and receive Differential GPS data. The GeoFix satellite link DGPS network provide wide area positioning coverage over all the West African coastal regions.
All Nigerian offshore hydrocarbon producing concession are currently covered by two third party Nigerian DGPS system producing regions with positioning accuracies of two to five meters in dynamic real-time mode. This is a subscription service that we utilize for Nigerian and West African Operations.
For The Oil & Gas Industry - Exploration
Rig Positioning
Personnel, Positioning equipment, Computers and advanced Positioning Software are available to Position exploration drilling rigs precisely on to new locations. In addition, tracking systems have been developed to the positioning of anchor handling tugs and other ancillary vessels.
Seismic Vessel Positioning
Sea Star provides the seismic vessel operator with a global coverage DGPS navigation service. For 3D surveys advanced products, under continuous development enable the positions of the streamer tail buoys to be continuously monitored.
Positioning For VSP Surveys
A navigation package with unique software, which offers a flexible system, configured to suit VSP acquisition surveys.
Geophysical Surveys
Dedicated site surveys vessels equipped with high resolution multi-channel geophysical acquisition system are rapidly mobilized and operated to check for the presence of shadow gas deposits and other hazards ar proposed drilling sites. High quality mapping and interpretations [including 3D] are available.
