Innovative Solutions for Offshore Exploration and Production

Today's Challenges Ice environments Deep/Ultradeep Complex environments Today's Solutions Surveys, analysis Networks Environmental Assessments programs and Impact studies Numerical modeling Remote sensing Equipment leasing Metocean design criteria meeting ISO 19901 ASL provides a full range of metocean consulting services, from project design and planning, through instrument and equipment deployment and recovery, to data analysis and scientific interpretation. Consulting services include ice studies, flow measurement, numerical modeling, wave measurement and analysis, hyperspectral remote sensing, and sediment transport. ASL has participated in numerous environmental studies and impact assessments, often as part of a multi-disciplinary team. Offshore Exploration and Production projects   ASL MeetsToday's Challenges ASL has carried out over 900 projects in the last 30 plus years, often under demanding environmental conditions in the Arctic, Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. Ice Ice thickness using the Ice Profiler™ Ice speed – ADCPs, Ice Profilers™, Numerical modeling Oil spills – ADCPs Ice Profilers™, Remote Sensing, Numerical modeling Currents/waves – ADCPs, Wave Profiler™, modeling Climate change and variability – analysis of historical records Monitoring – real-time networks Extensive experience in the Beaufort, Chukchi, Caspian, Greenland and Pechora Seas and  Eastern Canada and Sakhalin areas. Deep/Ultradeep (for pipelines, subsea production, risers, & floating platforms) Currents/waves/ice Near surface Near bottom Deepwater experience in the Atlantic Ocean, & the Mediterranean & Beaufort Seas Complex Environments (near-shore) Rivers Estuarine Shallow Sediments Waves (numerical modeling) Meteorological WERA – shore-based HF radar for currents and waves Bathymetry – Remote Sensing ASL has conducted many environmental assessment programs and impact studies. Collection, analysis and interpretation of physical oceanographic, meteorological and geo-environmental data is made and a historical review of past data conducted. ASL acquires and custom-prepare all required instrumentation, along with ancillary equipment. We also assume responsibility for deployment-planning in support of field-operations, and for providing support services for the preparation of the oceanographic equipment used.   ASL Products Ice Profiler™ An upward-looking sonar device, mounted on the ocean floor to accurately measure ice draft Estimate ice forces, production rates, and mass balances with these accurate measurements of ice thickness Ocean wave monitoring capability Wave Profiler™ Collects wave data in coastal shelf regions from depths up to 225m Operates in severe weather conditions and in marginal ice-zones No exposure to vandalism or heavy vessel traffic IRIS™ (Image Recorder for Imagenex Sonar) Data logger compatible with Imagenex Model 881A Sonar and Software Very low power consumption - allows extended deployment of 3-4 months with its standard alkaline battery pack Up to 2 Gigabyte data storage on Compact flash Locations of marine moored Ice Profiler™ deployments in the Northern Hemisphere from 1996 to the present. Leasing of Oceanographic, Flow Measurement and Meteorological Equipment ASL provides an extensive lease pool of oceanographic equipment All equipment is bench tested prior to shipment Discounts are available on long-term rentals, and ASL can provide mooring frames and stands for many of the items to be leased
