The 1,000th subsea metrology operation has been completed by 3D at Depth, a subsidiary of Kraken Robotics, marking a significant technical milestone in the field of underwater measurement and survey work.
3D at Depth was contracted by an Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (EPC) contractor to perform a LiDAR spool metrology for TotalEnergies at a depth of 1,350 meters in the Girassol oil field, located offshore Angola, West Africa. A remotely operated vehicle (ROV) was mobilized with 3D at Depth’s Subsea LiDAR within two hours. The total operational time for the two-position scan metrology was four hours, and deliverables were provided to the end client within 24 hours.
Established in 2011, 3D at Depth specializes in delivering high-quality subsea measurement services, leveraging proprietary technology and a team of skilled, experienced personnel to provide accurate results.
Maïwenn Keryell-Even, Survey Engineer, and Simon Olive, Product Owner Survey and Positioning, TotalEnergies, stated, “Not only does the support of advanced technologies and touchless solution provide TotalEnergies with the ability to de-risk inspection, maintenance, and repair, the increased efficiency and rapid acquisition allows us to continue to reduce our environmental impact.”
Euan Tait, COO of 3D at Depth, added, “Our 1,000th subsea metrology project is a significant milestone for 3D at Depth and we were delighted to support TotalEnergies. Our team’s commitment to technology innovation and advancements will continue to ensure the highest standards of quality and reliability for clients worldwide.”
The completion of the 1,000th project underscores the company’s focus on advancing subsea capabilities and delivering high-quality data to enhance operational efficiency in complex underwater environments.
