OEG Unveils Geometry Assurance Software for Ships and Subsea Vessels

OEG Energy Group (OEG) has officially unveiled GEOBASE, an offshore industry’s first dedicated vessel dimensional control assurance solution for survey and positioning systems onboard ships and subsea vehicles to feature calibration software.

It has been developed as a database to help document survey vessel geometry and standardize the measurement of vessel dimensions, sensor placements, and reference points.

Alongside this, it processes the calibration and verification for all installed heading and attitude sensors, which will ensure accurate positioning and survey data integrity.

Survey teams often face challenges due to inconsistencies between hardware and software manufacturers, with varying configurations and sign conventions in vessel survey setups.

These misalignments can result in positioning errors, increased operational risks, and costly delays.

GEOBASE eliminates this complexity, enabling users to manage and quality-assure vessel geometry, installed survey sensors, and their relationships throughout the ship’s lifecycle or for the duration of a project.

Designed by OEG’s team of dimensional control surveyors and software engineers, GEOBASE provides an independent resource to verify, simultaneously and with precision, that a vessel and any subsea assets on board are fully functional and capable of delivering accurate positioning data ahead of leaving port and while operating in field.
