Pliant Offshore’s IMS is designed to provide real-time measurements of the inclination and position of structures, such as monopiles, during installation.
The system uses 3D point cloud technology combined with laser sensors to measure and virtually reconstruct objects with high accuracy, the Dutch company said.
The integration of Exail Hydrins INS could improve the system performance by providing precise positioning and motion compensation, even on moving vessels. This enables the IMS to take continuous measurements during the pile-driving process, helping to ensure the correct positioning and stability of wind turbines in challenging offshore conditions, according to Pliant Offshore.
