Fugro Inks DeepOcean Fleet Positioning Deal

Fugro has been awarded a contract by subsea contractor DeepOcean for the provision of precise satellite positioning for their entire fleet.

The contract is valid for three years and also includes the new vessels in DeepOcean’s continuously expanding fleet.

Under the contract, Fugro will supply DeepOcean with three completely independent decimetre Global Navigation Satellite Systems.

In addition, Fugro’s new Starfix.G2+ system, which has a 3D accuracy approaching that of GNSS RTK systems, and Fugro’s Starfix.G4 satellite correction service are part of the contract delivery.

The DeepOcean fleet will be equipped with hardware and software developed by Fugro, providing independent positioning solutions on each vessel.
