Ensuring safe and efficient navigation As the maritime domain continues to evolve with a welcome focus on sustainability at sea and ashore, ensuring safe and efficient navigation is of more importance than ever The growing and sometimes competing demands on the use of the seas for navigation and the positive exploitation of offshore renewables presents benefits for wider society as well as new challenges for mariners. Global economies The evolving maritime trade seascape is crucial to economies world-wide and the impact of incidents has the potential to have wide ranging and undesirable social ..read more

Borescope inspection of wind turbines Endoscopic or borescope inspection is one of the techniques used to evaluate the status of the components of a wind turbine gearbox Together with Condition Monitoring (CM) techniques such as oil analysis and vibration analysis, endoscopic inspection can provide critical information to owners and maintenance teams, yielding cost savings over the life of the gearbox, minimising downtime and reducing the risk of catastrophic failures. The output of borescope inspections is a set of images and videos where the surface of the gearbox components can be observed ..read more

Lidar innovations – what’s new in Wind Resource Assessment? Revolutionising how organisations across industries harness wind power, lidar technology is increasingly proven to be a reliable and efficient method of measuring wind flow in simple and complex onshore terrains and demanding offshore environments With investment in wind energy research and development growing, an increasing number of countries pursuing strict net-zero targets and the cost of technologies slowly decreasing, wind energy will only gain greater importance as the demand for clean energy expands. Lidar is helping meet the ..read more
