LIVINGSTON, UK WFS Technologies has received two Spotlight on New Technology Awards from the Offshore Technology Conference (OTC). <\/p>\n
Its first award was for the Seatooth SmartClamp, a smart, wireless structural monitoring system (SMS) for use on subsea structures. It incorporates the Seatooth wireless data processing and transmission platform offering short, medium and long-range hybrid communication options. As a result, the tool includes strain, vibration, pressure, and temperature monitoring. <\/p>\n
The second award was for the Subsea Cloud Computing Network (SCCN). This is enabled by integrating with a SCM to create a subsea Wi-Fi hotspot. Seatooth smart devices, with edge computing and low power management systems are able to wirelessly connect directly to the network or cross-pollinate data using AUVs or ROVs for data harvesting.<\/p>\n
The company said the SCCN reduces both operating and asset integrity management costs as well as capex and risk while also extending a fields operating life and reducing its carbon footprint.<\/p>\n
WFS also won the Small Business Award, which recognizes companys with less than 300 employees.<\/p>\n
Seatooth technology enables the automation and digitalization of subsea assets through its ability to communicate through steel, ground, sea water and the water-air boundary, the company said.<\/p>\n
