Drawing on experience from trials and operations in the commercial offshore sector with Gavia AUVs , Hafmynd Ehf announces a new line: The Gavia Offshore Surveyor which is specifically geared to the commercial application of low logistics AUVs, carrying a variety of survey grade sensors. This new line includes a number of upgrades and optimizations particular to commercial offshore operations.

The Gavia Offshore Surveyor is a low logistic powerful survey tool capable of carrying out a variety of tasks including bathymetric surveys, pipeline inspections, environmental surveys, exploration, post hurricane inspection, pre-lay/prebuild and post-lay/post-build surveys for pipelines and platforms at a fraction of the cost of traditional survey means.

Do More With Less •

Increase productivity of current assets

Conduct offshore operations from vessels of opportunity or from shore

Lower start up costs

Highly Mobile and FedEx shippable

Self contained survey solution

Readily upgradable with additional modules

SeeByte’s AutoTracker: Autonomous Pipeline Tracking • The AutoTracker maintains the AUV at a constant

offset from a pipeline based on information received from the onboard side scan sonar • The offset can be chosen to optimize the data gath-

ering process. • Additional sensors can be employed such as swath

bathymetry, camera and custom payloads

High Quality Data • Powerful survey grade sensors • Swath coverage of up to 12 times vehicle altitude • High accuracy DGPS and DVL INS navigation • All data left in manufacturers original format and

readily exportable to a number of post processing packages • Payload modules available for carrying custom

payloads

Modular Construction Due to the modular construction of the Gavia Offshore Surveyor the system can conduct a variety of applications and additional capability is just a user changeable module away. Gavia Offshore modules can be purchased at later dates to increase capability as mission requirements dictate.
