In October, Morgan City-based and ABS certiÞ ed mobile satellite service provider and marine electronics service company Delta Wave Communications added three new offerings to its already wide menu of products. Delta Wave has been named an MDL distribution partner for the Fanbeam Laser DP reference system and MDLÕs Dynascan 3D mobile mapping system. Separately, a new agreement with KVH Industries introduces new, cutting edge VSAT and Broadband solutions to the Delta Wave stable. Fanbeam Laser DP reference system Used primarily as a dynamic positioning (DP) reference sensor, the system measures the position of an Offshore Support Vessel (OSV) relative to an offshore structure such as a platform. Using the position data from the Fanbeam and other sensors, the DP system automatically holds the vessel on station allowing safe and precise operations to take place. For example, the system is typically used as the primary position reference during critical short- range operations such as cargo container lifts, as well as for seismic source positioning relative to geophysical exploration vessels and for positioning mine detection equipment relative to navy vessels. The system is comprised of a laser sensor with a unique vertically ÒfannedÓ output beam allowing returns to be observed from passive retro-reß ective targets despite relative Fanbeam Laser DP Referencing, 3D Mo- bile Mapping and the latest VSAT and Broadband equipment from KVH. Delta Wave adds three new products to its line-up.
