Deepsea Navigation

The big hitters of subsea navigation have been gathered in one place for a shoot out, to determine who is king of the deepsea! Well, that’s not exactly it, but rarely do you have a chance to hear from the four main players in subsea navigation, back-to-back, in  the same arena. This really will be a quality event not to miss. In addition, and to kick-off proceedings, NOSP will start with a short Annual General Meeting (AGM) to present its finances, share its current goals and to elect a new member to the board.

Doors open at 17:30 and the evening’s timetable will be as follows:

  • 18:30 – NOSP Introduction and AGM (TBC)
  • 18:45 – Imenco: NASNet – Subsea Positioning System Upgrades and Improvements (Mark Scott)
  • 19:15Exail: Delph Subsea Positioning: How to Efficiently Plan Your Long Baseline (LBL) / Sparse LBL operations (Jim Titcomb)
  • 19:45 – Break / Networking
  • 20:15 – Kongsberg: Ultra Deepwater Positioning with HiPAP 602: Extending the range and precision of Medium Frequency Super Short Baseline (SSBL) for ranges up to 7000m (Spencer Collins)
  • 20:45 – Sonardyne: Optimising the Performance of a Long Range Ultra Short BaseLine (USBL) Tracking and Telemetry System (Alan MacDonald)

As ever, light food and drinks will be available for those in attendance so registration here is essential to get the correct quantities ordered. Although just over two hours in duration, the schedule is flexible; the most important thing is that we all enjoy the evening.

For those unable to attend, join us live on YouTube. The presentations will be available from the same link after the evening’s activities are concluded.

An Evening with Innova: Subsea Technology and the Internet of Things

Quality of events as opposed to quantity is NOSP’s mantra for 2023. For our second gathering of the year, NOSP has partnered with Innova to bring you what we believe will be a very educational experience for all who attend. Interesting presentations are confirmed with the added bonus of the evening being held at the Innova offices in Sandnes where all participants can acquaint themselves with the company, their operations and their facilities.

Doors open at 16:30 and the evening’s timetable will be as follows:

  • 17:45 Sonardyne: Next Generation System Architecture (Alan MacDonald)

  • 20:15 A Guided Tour of the Innova Facilities and Workshop

Light food and drinks will be available for those in attendance so registration here is essential so that the correct quantities can be ordered. And although just over two hours in duration, the schedule is flexible; the most important thing is that we all enjoy the evening.

02.02.2023 – NOSP Evening Event, Litteraturhuset, Bergen

In-person and Online Event – 19:00 (Norwegian Time – UTC+1hr)

New Energy Solutions

What better way to kick-off the New Year than with a host of presentations about the changing winds that are blowing through the offshore industry, literally. NOSP will once again be collaborating with the Norwegian Petroleum Society (Norsk Petroleumsforening) for a joint evening of four presentations about offshore wind. Survey is unlikely to feature that heavily, if at all, but that’s not to say that what will be discussed is not relevant for us or others in the industry.

Note that as the presenters this evening are Norwegian, the option exists for them to present in their mother tongue.

The evening’s timetable will be as follows:

  • 19:30 Strategy in New Energy: Wilhelmsen’s focus areas in offshore wind – Magnus Sande – Wilhelmsen New Energy
  • 20:00 Establishing Norwegian Leadership in Floating Offshore Wind – Arvid Nesse – MetCentre
  • 20:30 Monitoring and Managing the Environmental Impacts of Offshore Wind using Subsea Drones – Al Rumson & Lionel Camus – Deepocean/Akvaplan Niva

Doors open at 17:30 and members of the NOSP board and NPF will be there early. A large spread of finger food will be available for those in attendance and a bar is downstairs for anyone who fancies a tipple or two. Although two hours in duration, the schedule is flexible; the most important thing is that we all enjoy the evening.

Please register your attendance either in-person or online here.
