We are pleased to announce a new contract award with Royal IHC for the deployment of a FireLaser Distributed Temperature Sensing (DTS) system on a subsea umbilical monitoring project.
For an upcoming offshore project, Royal IHC required continuous temperature monitoring of a 3km umbilical used to control a subsea ROV (Remotely Operated Vehicle). Given the critical role of the umbilical in transmitting power and control signals, thermal integrity is essential to ensure operational reliability and asset protection in demanding marine environments.
Bandweaver’s FireLaser DTS system will provide:
- Continuous, real-time temperature monitoring along the full 3km length
- High-resolution thermal profiling to detect developing hotspots
- Early warning of abnormal thermal events
- Robust performance in harsh offshore conditions
FireLaser’s distributed sensing capability makes it ideally suited to long, mission-critical assets such as subsea umbilicals, where traditional point sensors cannot provide full-length coverage.
This award further demonstrates Bandweaver’s capability to deliver advanced fiber optic monitoring solutions across offshore and subsea applications. We look forward to supporting Royal IHC on this project and continuing to expand our presence within the marine sector.
