Frequently Asked Questions

What are geophysical sensors used for in ROV operations?

Geophysical sensors on ROVs are used to collect critical subsea data for applications such as seabed mapping, geological profiling, and resource exploration. They measure acoustic, magnetic, electromagnetic, and seismic properties of the seafloor, providing precise data for environmental monitoring, offshore construction, and oil & gas exploration.

How is a geophysical survey carried out using an ROV?

Conducting a geophysical survey with an ROV involves selecting appropriate sensors—such as side-scan sonar, sub-bottom profilers, or magnetometers—based on the survey objective. These sensors are integrated into the ROV’s data acquisition system to transmit real-time information to the surface. Accurate calibration and operator training ensure precise data collection and interpretation.

What are the different types of marine geophysical surveys?

Marine geophysical surveys include seismic, magnetic, gravimetric, and electromagnetic techniques. Each method provides unique insights into subsea geology—for example, seismic surveys map sediment layers, while magnetic surveys detect ferrous materials. These methods are essential for offshore energy projects, cable route planning, and marine research.

What equipment is used in subsea geophysical surveys?

Subsea geophysical surveys typically use ROVs equipped with side-scan sonars, sub-bottom profilers, magnetometers, and other environmental sensors. This combination allows comprehensive exploration of underwater environments, supporting applications in marine construction, archaeology, and resource discovery.
