Fugro Survey Technology

The Fugro Offshore Survey Division activities require extensive technological support in order to deliver the services that the offshore industry requires. There is a continuous need for the implementation and utilisation of new methods, sensors, positioning techniques, data acquisition, processing and visualisation systems that emerge from ever growing industry demands. To support this, Fugro has a strong technical development resource that develops the software and hardware that are specific to offshore survey operations.

Fugro's development activities are conducted in development centres in The Netherlands, UK, USA and Australia. This resource includes a number of staff who develop and maintain the software and hardware systems that are needed for Fugro's survey activities offshore. These systems are formally consolidated, tested and released on a regular basis to ensure that field operations can rely on the latest available technology at all times. A team in Europe develops and supports the hardware that is required to implement specialist navigation hardware solutions and produce for example the High Precision satellite user equipment (StarPack) and dedicated systems to support seismic operations (Protrack)
