Fugro SeaSTAR DP service provides a reliable source of Differential Global Navigation Satellite Systems (DGNSS) corrections for Dynamic Positioning (DP) applications all around the world. The corrections are broadcast on dual independent delivery channels in all Inmarsat ocean regions.
Onboard equipment
Reception is either via a small dedicated omni-directional antenna or alternatively a connection is made to a compatible existing Inmarsat system. This connection has no impact on use for normal two-way communications, and does not affect equipment approvals.
Seastar DP is designed for Dynamic Positioning applications operating world-wide, users include:
- Offshore Support vessels
- Drilling Ships and Rigs
- Floating Production Units
- Tankers
- Service Vessels
- Cruise-Ships
- Offshore Loading
Reception of DGNSS corrections is either via an L Band receiver/decoder, such as the SeaSTAR 3510LR, for data transfer to a separate GNSS positioning system, or direct to an integrated DGNSS receiver with integral GNSS (GPS/GLONASS) sensor.
A choice of services are provided, ranging from the SeaSTAR VBS metre level, GPS only, single frequency service to the SeaSTAR G2 decimetre level, integrated GPS/GLONASS, dual frequency service.
Please contact us if you wish to make use of this service.
