Automating seismic cable cleaning

Seismic ships map oil resources by towing long cables equipped with advanced sensors that accurately map seabed structures. However, in some areas of the world these cables quickly become fouled by marine growth, hindering sensor accuracy and increasing drag. Traditionally, cleaning these cables has been a labor-intensive task performed manually by the crew from work boats. To address this, SCUe was developed as an automated solution. SCUe attaches to the beginning of the seismic cables and autonomously removes barnacles and other fouling as it travels along the cable. This innovative device is powered by turbines that activate brushes, replacing difficult manual operations while significantly improving overall HSE and operational speed.
