VERIPOS has recently been awarded a new three-year contract by Technip, a global project management, engineering and construction company serving the energy industry.
The contract is for provision of services aboard eight of Technip’s fleet of subsea construction vessels and represents a continuation of a working relationship between the two companies which began in 1993.
Under the new contract, Aberdeen-based VERIPOS will provide dual-beam Ultra, Precise Point Positioning (PPP) service for decimetre-level accuracies, together with Verify-QC software for real-time monitoring and control. Associated equipment consists of proprietary LD2-GG2 integrated mobile receivers installed aboard all eight Technip vessels, including Deep Blue, the flagship of Technips’ fleet.
Commenting on the new agreement, VERIPOS Managing Director Walter Steedman said: “It marks a further important step in providing our clients in subsea construction and engineering operations with precise navigation and positioning solutions.”
