  8. Offshore oil vs offshore wind Mars oil field, Gulf of Mexico 1-2 approaches per day 2 platforms 1-2 targets per platform 50 approaches per day Targets on every turbine - £££ BARD1 Wind Farm, North Sea 80 turbines http://strangesounds.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/Germany-BARD-Offshore-1-Completed-Ahead-Of-Schedule.jpg Tel: +44 116 229 2600 Web: www.guidance.eu.com

  9. Navigating in wind farms Risk of false reflection and walk off incidents if Reflector • CyScan not set up correctly target • Poor quality targets are used location Laser PRS operation requirements • Direct line of sight between the laser sensor and reflector • The reflector must ideally be at a similar height to the sensor • The reflector should be well maintained and clean • No other reflectors should be in the vicinity of the target Tel: +44 116 229 2600 Web: www.guidance.eu.com

  10. Demo Tel: +44 116 229 2600 Web: www.guidance.eu.com

  11. Are targets the answer? Tube/Tape Prism £ £££ High Maintenance High Maintenance 5 years life 20 year life High risk of false Risk of false reflections reflections Tel: +44 116 229 2600 Web: www.guidance.eu.com

  12. Use the environment as your target Environment £0 NO Maintenance >20 years No risk of false reflections Tel: +44 116 229 2600 Web: www.guidance.eu.com

  13. What is ? Targetless object detection and accurate distance measurement • fixed beam radar sensors operating in the license exempt short range device band of 24GHz Measures range to the nearest object • a warning is output when a potential hazard is detected within user defined protection zones • An accurate range measurement is displayed on the user interface via a web browser Wide beam and narrow fixed beam options • 11°(+/-5.5°) elevation and two options of azimuth beam: 11°(Narrow Beam) and 110° (Wide Beam) Tel: +44 116 229 2600 Web: www.guidance.eu.com

  14. Dynamic positioning with RangeGuard Ships DP Display on system – Not Bridge for this trial Ships network RangeGuard Controller Tel: +44 116 229 2600 Web: www.guidance.eu.com

  15. Installation on the Ocean Zephyr • Wide beam sensors • IP video cameras 15m  Beam overlap gives range 8 meters to >> 50 meters Tel: +44 116 229 2600 Web: www.guidance.eu.com

  16. Bridge display Different Views available Tel: +44 116 229 2600 Web: www.guidance.eu.com

  17. How is raw data processed? All radar return signals are detected – peaks in signal strength Radar Data processed in control box Target tracking algorithm used to monitor and track peaks Can track 10 peaks simultaneously Can Lock onto an interesting peak – largest or nearest Tel: +44 116 229 2600 Web: www.guidance.eu.com

  18. What does raw data look like? RangeGuard “sees” peaks corresponding to the legs FFT Data – Approach to Sub Station Signal Level [dB]] Camera View Range [m]  Up to 10 peaks can be tracked simultaneously  Can lock onto nearest or biggest peak Tel: +44 116 229 2600 Web: www.guidance.eu.com

  21. DP Integration DP Other system sensors Calculates position using sensor location and range data Data sampled 3 times per second Tracks up to 10 peaks per sensor Outputs Range data Display on bridge DP string format Data sampled 3 Controls thrusters times per second Tel: +44 116 229 2600 Web: www.guidance.eu.com

  22. Benefits of RangeGuard System No targets – uses the environment • Vessel independent of installation • No false reflections • No maintenance • Reduces costs Improves safety • Additional form of redundancy Increases efficiencies • Decreases turnaround times Tel: +44 116 229 2600 Web: www.guidance.eu.com

  23. What’s next? The first vessel to have RangeGuard fully DP integrated will be ready to sail in 2016 – the Windea La Cour Tel: +44 116 229 2600 Web: www.guidance.eu.com
