Secure and reliable

When safety is paramount in your survey and clearance operations, IT 6 offers a solution to ensure your success.

For energy: With any offshore energy development, there’s the potential to encounter unexploded ordnance (UXO). IT 6 improves the safety and efficiency of clearance operations, keeping your personnel away from risk and your project on track.

For defence: An important new addition to the MCM and underwater ordnance playbook, IT 6 helps your clearance divers and robotic platforms dispose of modern day and historical ordnance, quickly and effectively.

IT 6 is based on our field-proven Wideband 2 digital signal technology, which offers a reliable and long-range underwater wireless communications link. With IT 6, your personnel no longer need to hard wire mine neutralisers up to signal relay buoys on the surface and can set up an initiation operation in bad weather and outside of daylight hours.

Initiation Transponder 6 (IT 6) is designed to be connected directly to a remotely deployed, non-electric (NONEL) mine neutralisation device, such as a Viper from ECS Special Projects. This allows commercial and naval EOD teams to send a wireless, acoustic command from their vessel to initiate a shock tube.

It can be placed directly by a clearance diver or remotely operated vehicles (ROV). Divers and ROVs are constrained by the equipment and payload they can carry so we’ve designed IT 6 to be small and lightweight yet tough enough to withstand everyday operational situations.

With use cases from offshore renewable energy to government and defence, IT 6 transponders are suitable for high order detonation and low order deflagration scenarios.

At a glance:

• Efficient, secure, safe
• 357 mm tall by 55 mm in diameter; 0.10 kg weight in water; designed to be carried by clearance divers or small ROVs
• Controlled using IP67-rated Deck Topside and cabled acoustic dunker
• Safe: automatic time-outs, hydrostatic switch, independent circuits for acoustics and firing
• Built using 6G hardware and Wideband 2 digital signal architecture: track with our Ranger 2 family of USBL tracking systems

Built for your UXO, MCM and EOD missions

Wireless

Underwater acoustic command and control is in our DNA, so IT 6 can be considered as reliable and as secure as traditional methods involving shock tubes and a lot safer than electrical detonation lines.

Safe

Safety and simplicity are key with the IT 6 and it features several fixed and user-configurable safety features.

Firstly, the IT 6 comes complete with a hydrostatic switch, which means the unit cannot be put into an armed state when shallower than the fixed hydrostatic switch depth. If recovered back to deck, the IT 6 will also render itself impossible to arm when it goes below the minimum allowed depth.

Configurable off-deck delays and seabed timeouts mean fixed arming and firing windows can be set. The internal circuitry of the IT 6 also means that no power is applied to the independent detonation circuitry until the operator chooses to fire/initiate the NONEL output from the IT 6.

The clear housing on the IT 6 contains three status LEDs which allow the operator to quickly assess the state of the transponder and its safety. A magnetic ‘remove before use’ pin also means the IT 6 has a long operational battery life and can be powered down completely when not in use.

IT 6 is controlled using our field-proven Deck Topside system. Environmentally rated to IP67, the topside features a daylight readable 7-inch resistive touch screen, physical initiate/arm buttons and rechargeable battery – perfect for operating from small craft with no external power.

A further operational benefit of IT 6 is that its location can be tracked using any our Ranger 2 USBL systems which are installed on hundreds of energy, defence and science vessels globally.

Overview

Dynamic and fast

Our dynamic laser scanning skid is a turn-key survey solution comprising of all the hardware and software, pre-configured and calibrated, to enable simple and fast mobilisation, efficient acquisition, and if needed, in-person or remote support from our expert surveyors.

The skid is fitted with a SPRINT-Nav, ROVNav 6+, sound velocity, conductivity and temperature sensors, and a custom Voyis ULS500 Pro.
All the sensors are interfaced via an Innova Titan Matrix MKII+ multiplexor.

Until now, because dynamic centimetric-level navigation with fast update rates has not been commercially available, subsea laser and LiDAR systems have predominantly been used in a static mode. Due to the relatively short ranges achievable from these systems, multiple scans are required involving relocating the system to a number of locations on the seabed. Operationally, this is time consuming, both in terms of physically relocating the scanner, waiting for the visibility to clear after the scanner has been placed on seabed, and then processing time to merge the data together. It also means scans are limited to side, ground-level views.

With our dynamic platform, a site can be mapped quickly with no issues of reduced visibility as the ROV does not come into contact with the seabed and can move to scan any target of interest – including from above. High resolution point cloud data can contain a wealth of information which can be utilised for various engineering requirements, including revealing previously unknown features.

The kit

Transceivers

Our High Performance Transceiver (HPT), is available in a range of different designs to suit your operations whether they are in deep or shallow water or over a long layback.

HPT 5000 / 7000 are acoustic and telemetry transceivers designed for use with Ranger 2 USBL system. HPT 5000 enables targets offer wide range of water depths to be tracked; HPT 7000 is optimised for noisy DP drilling and construction vessels and in deep water.

HPT 5000 offers full hemispherical acoustic coverage so is a popular choice for tracking multiple targets (ROVs, AUVs, towfish, seafloor sensors) over a wide range of depths and elevations. The unit is also suitable for dynamic positioning reference on survey, research and offshore support vessels.

HPT 7000 is engineered for ultra-deepwater operations, tracking targets far below (rather than to the side of) a vessel, and for high vessel noise operating environments such as those typical of DP, drilling and construction where activity from thrusters is liable to cause signal interference.

If you need a solution for a vessel of opportunity, our pre-calibrated, all-in-one Gyro USBL transceiver is perfect. Lighter, smaller and just as capable, our second-generation Gyro USBL transceiver works seamlessly with Ranger 2 to track the position of your subsea targets from a USV, vessel of opportunity or from a pipelay vessel’s stinger over extreme ranges.

• All-in-one instrument; combined 6G acoustic transceiver and AHRS
• Choose between standard or ‘plus’ variants to suit your project’s specifications
• Optimises the performance of Ranger 2; eliminates lever arm offsets, pole bending and ship flexing errors
• Calibrated in-water before delivery – saving you time; install it and go to work

Transponders

The flexibility of the Ranger 2 family is further extended by our range of transponders to support a wide variety of your operations. WMT is a high-power transponder capable of operations to 7,000 m, while AvTrak 6 is our most capable acoustic vehicle instrument, combining the functions of a USBL transponder, LBL transceiver and modem for demanding applications such as AUV command and control.

Unite your navigation and positioning for seamless efficiency

Fuse your workflow and control all your Long BaseLine (LBL), Sparse LBL, and SPRINT Inertial Navigation System (INS) projects from one intuitive interface. No more juggling multiple programmes – Fusion 2 simplifies your operations.

From subsea structure installation, metrology, pipeline and spool piece monitoring to pipeline positioning and more, Fusion 2 streamlines your subsea navigation and positioning. It connects LBL, Sparse LBL, and SPRINT INS for smooth workflows, real-time calibration and efficient deployments. This future-proof technology unlocks the potential of 6G+ and Wideband 3 instruments.

Real-Time Calibration: For faster, more efficient Sparse LBL operations, Fusion 2 allows real-time calibration of seabed transponders using Simultaneous Localisation and Mapping (SLAM). Eliminating delays and ensuring you collect accurate data from the start.

Enhanced efficiency through optimising hardware mobilisation. By consolidating control under one program, you require less equipment offshore, reducing costs and simplifying logistics, as well as saving you valuable setup time.

Built for our latest 6G+ instruments, Fusion 2 unlocks the full potential of Wideband 3 signal technology, ensuring your operations are at the forefront of subsea navigation.

Fusion 2 – fuse your systems for optimal performance

Why Fusion 2 is perfect for your operations

Do more with less – no need to operate two independent software and hardware systems to control your 6G LBL and SPRINT INS – Fusion 2 does it all in a single interface.

Fusion 2 LBL allows you to run calibrations in real time. Meaning you spend less time calibrating and more time collecting the right data, first time.

Lower your start-up costs: for practical, reliable LBL INS, Fusion 2 supports use of our SPRINT 300 with fewer transponders.

Why choose it/us

Backed by over 40 years of LBL system experience, Fusion 2 is the obvious choice for your offshore installation projects. Its 6G+ technology allows centimetric subsea positioning in all water depths. Highly robust and accurate instruments, professionally supported by our in-house engineers and surveyors, have made it the system of choice for subsea structure installations for decades.

Used with products such as GyroCompatt 6+, it provides you with centimetric positioning along with class leading Lodestar gyroscopes for heading, pitch and roll measurements all in a single, easy to deploy instrument.

If your underwater operations require precise measurements, an acoustic metrology system using several Compatt 6+ transponders can be placed in a network on the seabed / structures / hubs. The depths of the Compatts can then be accurately measured and 6G+ Wideband acoustic ranges collected between them.

Fusion 2 enables your seabed transponders to be SLAM calibrated in real-time for easier and faster Sparse LBL operations. And by embedding sensor data with high-update navigation ranging data, there’s no more interruptions to positioning updates at critical moments.

You’ll begin to see the benefits even before your project teams head offshore. Acoustic and INS projects can be configured and checked onshore prior to vessel mobilisation – saving you time, streamlining procedures and helping you to further de-risk operations.

If you need to tailor your operations, Fusion 2 enables multiple computations, comparing different set-ups, allowing you to pick the one you want. Sparse LBL might suit one operation more than LBL and vice versa. Now it’s easy to check, on-site, which works best for you.

"The Kit"/technology/software

For optimal performance, Fusion 2 can be used with a number of our products – including Gyro Compatt 6+, Compatt 6+, SPRINT-Nav, ROVNav 6+ / mini ROVNav.

To further increase operational efficiency, digital signal processing protocol, Fusion 2 is best paired with Wideband 3, which you’ll find inside our trusted 6G platforms, Compatt 6+ and ROVNav 6+.

Wideband 3 gives you sensor data alongside navigation ranging data, providing your operators with real-time positions and sensor data at the same time. This allows the acceleration of update rates by a factor of ten, eliminating latency issues.

Get the SPRINT advantage

SPRINT gives you:

• Robust performance in challenging subsea conditions
• High-precision outputs for enhanced vehicle control
• Instantaneous start-up without lengthy alignment periods
• Seamless integration with your existing equipment

SPRINT optimises acoustic aiding data from USBL, LBL, Doppler Velocity Log (DVL) and pressure sensors, improving position accuracy, precision, reliability, and integrity. It extends the operating limits of your vessel’s USBL and enhances LBL efficiency by enabling sparse seabed transponder arrays. All while reducing operational time and vessel costs.

Choose your SPRINT

• SPRINT 300: Perfect for dual ROV and survey use, standalone ROV guidance, and mid-water station keeping. It’s the most cost-effective subsea INS available, with less than 0.1° Sec Lat Heading accuracy.
• SPRINT 500: Ideal for your demanding multibeam survey operations. Supports tightly integrated sparse LBL range aiding from Sonardyne 6G transponders, with automatic pressure and swell compensation.
• SPRINT 700: Our highest-performance INS system, designed for your most challenging subsea survey tasks. Supports mobile laser mapping and acoustic inertial metrology with tight integration to Sonardyne acoustics.

The technology

Inertial navigation is inherently self-contained and robust with very good short term accuracy, but it can drift over time. Therefore, the SPRINT INS is supported by complementary acoustic positioning to provide long term accuracy and robustness. This significantly reduces operational delays during periods of challenging subsea acoustic conditions such as aeration and noise. The precision and update rate of the output allows greater subsea vehicle control and makes SPRINT suitable for ROV station keeping.

SPRINT shares a hardware platform with our Lodestar AHRS and runs both AHRS and INS algorithms concurrently. This allows instant INS start or restart upon receiving a position update, eliminating the lengthy ‘alignment’ period common in other systems. The system monitors AHRS and INS orientation separately to assess its health. All calculations are performed internally, protecting against communication issues. The system maintains a 15-day backup of navigation and raw data on an onboard SD card, while topside software concurrently logs all data, ensuring data integrity.

DVL and AHRS/INS

Our Syrinx DVL provides tight beam-level aiding to SPRINT, giving superior positioning performance even with partial beam availability. Standalone 3rd generation SPRINT and Syrinx DVL can be joined together for pre-calibrated, interchangeable use, or combined into the compact SPRINT-Nav unit. This integrated solution, optionally including an internal pressure sensor, is suitable for various ROV and survey tasks. The combined unit features depth-rated water blocks for each transducer to protect the internal components and when supplied together typically doesn’t require re-export licensing, simplifying your shipping logistics.

Designed and manufactured entirely in the UK, Syrinx is a class leading DVL for surface and subsea vehicles, available in two frequencies: 600 kHz or 400 kHz for higher altitude tracking up to 230 m. Syrinx variants combine high resolution and high altitude tracking, in single, easy to install navigation instruments. Its adaptive bottom lock technology provides consistency and reliability over challenging and changing topography, working at an altitude higher than 85% of the world’s subsea infrastructure. This reduces the amount of time a vehicle must dive on free inertial.

If your mission requires water profiling, Syrinx’s highly capable ADCP mode enables both navigation and profiling without the need for separate instrument, saving you cost and payload.

When tightly integrated with Sonardyne’s SPRINT INS, unmatched DVL-aided navigation can be achieved. This allows for enhanced performance through optimisation of beam-level data passed between Syrinx and SPRINT to aid velocity prediction and outlier rejection, with positioning able to continue even if one or two DVL beams are unavailable. For the ultimate integration Syrinx and SPRINT are also available as a single combined unit with integral pressure sensor. SPRINT-Nav is one of the smallest inertial DVL instruments available on the market suitable for almost any ROV and survey task.

Why Syrinx?

• Unmatched Versatility: Use Syrinx as a DVL, ADCP, or both simultaneously. You decide how to harness its power.

Syrinx runs an embedded system manager using a web browser, eliminating the need to install dedicated PC software. This allows configuration and testing of Syrinx prior to deployment, control during subsea operations and visualisation of the navigation data.

The hardware and vehicle interfacing are easy to install, set up and use. It’s compatible with DVL/ADCP mounting arrangements from other vendors so you shouldn’t need to modify your subsea vehicles to upgrade to Syrinx. PD0, PD3, PD4, PD6, PD13 telegrams are supported for integration to third party navigation systems.

A 4,000 m rated titanium housing is supplied as standard to meet the requirements of work-class ROVs. 6,000 m and OEM (no housing) versions are also available.

Syrinx’s transducers have been designed, built and tested in-house to provide maximum performance, and can be individually replaced, reducing ownership costs and repair time. The entire array is water blocked meaning that should damage occur to the transducer array, the unit’s electronics are isolated from water ingress.

Echo Observer for Syrinx (EOS)

EOS is a software application for Syrinx and SPRINT-Nav systems which allows ADCP data to be viewed, quality controlled, logged and then exported. This standalone application is compatible with Windows 7 or 10 and requires only modest processing resources.

EOS provides an intuitive interface to Syrinx, allowing the device to be configured over Serial port or Ethernet with a quick setup procedure for ADCP measurements. You can immediately view the profile data and make any necessary adjustments before committing to a long-term deployment.

Once initial data inspection has been completed, EOS provides the link to the onward data processing chain: Industry-standard PD0 data can be exported as comma-separated variable (CSV) files, ideal for importing into Excel or Matlab for analysis and post-processing. The exported PD0 data can be tailored to match your analysis needs, such as specific portions of the water column, or a favoured frame of reference.

Specific sections of the PD0 data can be omitted in CSV export if they are not relevant to your analysis, reducing file size and therefore processing time. Echo Observer for Syrinx is included with the ADCP functionality upgrade for both Syrinx and SPRINT-Nav.
