Zupt is a U.S. based in- ternational integrator of surveying and positioning technologies, specializing in the applications of inertial technologies for both onshore and offshore survey and navigation services. Since the develop- ment of its underwater metrology system C-PINS in 2008, it has completed a half century of metrologies. The Tech The Tech Zupt delivers operationally aware tech- nologies to improve the productivity as- sociated with high cost operations for oil and gas exploration and Þ eld develop- ment through the use of inertial naviga- tion systems. The primary advantage of an inertial navigation system (INS) is that it re- quires no external references in order to determine its position, orientation, or ve- locity once it has been aligned. An INS can detect a change in its geographic position, a change in its velocity, and a change in its orientation by measuring the linear and angular accelerations ap-plied to the system. This inertial technology is integrated into C-PINS, a subsea precise inertial navigation system; D-PINS, a dynamic positioning inertial position reference sensor; EM-AHRS, a electromagnetic attitude heading reference sensor; as well as SH-ERA, a high resolution stack heading and electrical riser angle system.ZUPT LLC ZUPT LLC Marine Technology Reporter 19www.seadiscovery.com MTR #6 (18-33).indd 19MTR #6 (18-33).indd 197/19/2013 10:46:54 AM7/19/2013 10:46:54 AM
