The Challenge

  • Validate the structural stability of a jack-up barge in a harsh environment

The client, a leading oil and gas company, faced the urgent need to validate the structural stability of a jack-up barge operating in a high-risk offshore environment. With strict safety requirements in an ATEX zone, the challenge was to acquire and analyze real-time structural data for operational stability, mitigate risks, and maintain project timelines.

The Solution

Geocomp delivered a tailored monitoring solution using the Sercel S-morpho system. The deployment featured an ATEX-compliant setup with advanced sensors, centralized control, and real-time connectivity. The system was installed and operational in under four hours, providing high-resolution data at a 200 Hz frequency and comprehensive structural analysis using Operational Modal Analysis (OMA). Preliminary insights were available within minutes, enabling immediate risk assessment and decision-making.
