Barge and Rig Routes

Rigs and barges moving from ports and waterways to the worksite can encounter serious obstacles before the work can begin. Considerations such as water depth and hazards to navigation can be critical factors in getting the equipment to location in a safe and timely manner.

JCLS Route Mapping Advantages

  • A custom plan is designed and tailored to fit client needs. Only the tools and technology needed to complete the job safely are used, providing significant savings to the customer.
  • Multiple systems are utilized, giving the big picture of what lies beneath the surface. Depending on the circumstances, several different technologies are typically utilized in route surveys. Single-beam fathometer, side-scan sonar, multibeam profiling, and STARFIX satellite data can all be integrated.
  • Access to our comprehensive GIS database can foresee potential problem areas, including pipelines and well locations, before the field survey even begins.
  • Projects are completed in a fraction of the time previously required. Multiple data collection sources and advanced data processing techniques allows the customer to move onto location in a much faster timeframe.
