Revolutionizing Subsea Detection: The eBOSS System Partnership
Ashtead Technology has entered a landmark global technology partnership with EdgeTech to bring the revolutionary eBOSS sonar system to the forefront of the subsea technology rental market. This strategic alliance marks a significant advancement in underwater exploration, detection, and identification capabilities.
The Cutting-Edge eBOSS System
The EdgeTech Buried Object Sonar System (eBOSS) stands as a testament to innovation in subsea technology. Designed to penetrate the seabed, this advanced sonar system excels at detecting, locating, classifying, and identifying buried and partially exposed objects. From small unexploded ordnance (UXO) to larger mine-like objects, obstructions, pipelines, and cables, the eBOSS is a versatile tool that promises unprecedented accuracy and efficiency.
Unlocking New Potential in Subsea Surveys
With its low-frequency acoustic imaging capabilities, the eBOSS system enables real-time surveys, including cable and pipeline tracking, and detailed route mapping. This invaluable data, coupled with synthetic aperture sonar (SAS) technology, allows for the creation of 3D images of buried objects, providing a comprehensive view of the subsea landscape.
A Partnership Built on Expertise
Ashtead Technology’s partnership with EdgeTech is a fusion of technological prowess and field expertise. As stated in Marine Technology News, Ashtead Technology will provide an extensive global fleet of ancillary equipment and skilled offshore technicians to ensure seamless deployment and support throughout project lifecycles. Their combined efforts will deliver an integrated detection package poised to tackle even the most challenging subsea environments.
Versatile Deployment Options
The eBOSS system’s adaptability shines through its versatile deployment capabilities. It can be operated from various vehicles, including vessels, remotely operated vehicles (ROVs), remotely operated towed vehicles (ROTVs), and towed vehicles, offering flexible solutions for diverse project needs.
A Glimpse Into the Future of Subsea Technology
The collaboration between Ashtead Technology and EdgeTech is a beacon of progress in the subsea industry. As the demand for advanced sonar systems grows, the eBOSS system is positioned to lead the charge in transforming underwater exploration and detection, setting a new standard for the industry.
In this era of technological evolution, such partnerships and innovations underscore the importance of continuous advancement, driving the future of marine exploration and preservation.
