ecoSUB-Hydrocarbon Sniffer Series
AUVs configured to detect and measure crude oil in water for offshore oil and gas leak detection, plume tracking and spill response.
Description
The Hydrocarbon Sniffer series detects and measures crude oil in water for the offshore oil and gas sector, emergency response and plume tracking. Vehicles can react to a detection by sending an acoustic message or surfacing to report via Iridium. An ecoSUBm5 Hydrocarbon Sniffer took part in an Oil Spill Response Limited exercise.
Key features
- Lite versions (µ5 and m5): single-channel Valeport Hyperion OIW sensor, altimeter and fast-response temperature sensor
- m5 Hydrocarbon Sniffer: Seabird Scientific SeaOWL sensor (crude oil, backscatter, chlorophyll-a) with CT sensors
- Sniffer+: adds dissolved oxygen
- Crude oil detection at 370 nm excitation / 460 nm emission; backscatter at 700 nm
- Acoustic or Iridium reporting of detections
Applications
- Subsea leak detection at offshore installations
- Oil spill response and plume tracking
