Blue Ocean-developed technology has been integrated into a pilot scale autonomous Ocean Bottom Seismic (OBS) data acquisition system, resulting in a step change reduction in the cost, time and HSE risks required to acquire high quality OBS data​.

  • Blue Ocean Seismic Services Joint Venture UK and Australian facilities are fully operational ​

  • Engineering and support teams are in place (36 staff)​

  • Operations team ramp-up is underway​

  • Continued strong technical engagement with stakeholders (bp Ventures & Woodside)​

  • Developed cutting edge technology in Command & Control proven   ​

In addition to hydrocarbon exploration and reservoir optimisation, BOSS technology can be used for CO2 storage location identification and wind farm development uses.​

Case Study:

Mining Tailings Disposal, Indonesia

  • Surface to 200 m water depths

  • Continuous profiling for 25 days

  • Data collected and reported in real time

  • Confirmation of tailings placement below required water depths

Case Study:

Drill Mud Monitoring, Western Australia

  • Validation of hydrodynamic and sediment dispersion models

  • Prior to, during and following drilling operations

  • Continuous profiling for 45 days

  • Glider redundancy provided to ensure data continuity

Case Study:

Produced Formation Water Surveys, Western Australia

  • Fluorescence sensors integrated for measuring Dissolved Organic Matter (DOM)

  • DOM used for the determination of hydrocarbon presence

  • Laboratory established relationship Total Recoverable Hydrocarbons (TRH)

  • Rhodamine level detection
