01
Pipeline and riser monitoring
Observe movement, leakage indicators, acoustic change, and surrounding activity at selected high-consequence locations.
Application / Offshore energy
Persistent monitoring around offshore energy infrastructure.
Aphotic supports long-duration observation of pipelines, risers, foundations, moorings, and surrounding water conditions across the operating life of an offshore asset.
Primary objectiveObserve asset condition and surrounding activity
System configurationArgus A, B, or X selected by depth and geometry
Operator outputCondition trends, event alerts, and targeted inspections
A consistent record instead of isolated inspection snapshots.
Offshore assets are inspected at planned intervals and after specific alarms, but many changes develop gradually or occur between campaigns. A persistent sensor layer provides the time history needed to understand those changes and direct inspection effort where it is most useful.
Aphotic can combine acoustic, optical, chemical, and physical sensors at selected points around an asset. Local processing identifies deviations and events; Nexus organizes the results across the field and makes them available to operations, integrity, and environmental teams.
02
Foundation and mooring context
Track local currents, sediment, vibration, and visual condition around foundations and mooring systems.
03
Environmental compliance
Collect repeatable water-column and seabed measurements alongside operational data.
04
Targeted inspection
Use persistent observations to define when and where a diver, ROV, or UUV inspection is required.
System approach
One monitoring architecture across shallow and deep assets.
The Argus family supports structure-mounted, midwater, and full-depth configurations while keeping a common payload and data workflow.
Relevant systems
Select the Argus housing by depth and the sensor stack by mission.
Argus A, B, and X share a common seabed sensing, edge-processing, storage, power-management, and acoustic-communications architecture. Atlas services the deployed fleet, while Nexus provides the operating picture, planning, alerts, and tasking above it.
