Newton Labs and Ashtead Technology have delivered an advanced subsea laser scanning project for Subsea 7 on Chevron�s Captain field located in the UK North Sea using Newton�s underwater laser scanners.
The scope of work included an internal casing inspection utilizing Newton�s M210UW ultra high resolution short range underwater laser scanner and a horizontal mapping survey using the longer range Newton M3200UW to capture more than 100 short and long range scans. This allowed Ashtead to generate a 3D model of the structure.
The M210UW allows for extremely accurate short range scans down to 0.02 millimeter. The M3200UW operates with a 5 meter range and can operate with either internal sweeping scanning or as a fixed laser line scanner with IMU data to measure underwater objects to 0.2 millimeter accuracy.
�We are very pleased to be working with an excellent company such as Ashtead Technology� said John Bramblet, President and CEO of Newton Labs.
Newton is the world�s oldest and largest manufacturer of underwater laser scanners with the most extensive line of subsea scanners.
Allan Pirie, chief executive of Ashtead Technology, said: �In response to market demand, we continue to invest in the latest subsea equipment, working with leading manufacturers to provide the technology our customers need.
�This project was a great example of how the supply chain can work closely with operators to design and engineer bespoke solutions to complex challenges.�
