Oceaneering Surveyor Conducts High-Accuracy Dimensional Control Survey
Connecting What’s Needed with What’s Next TM oceaneering.com Case Study Project Overview A client in Angola had an immediate need for a dimensional control (dimcon) survey on two permanent guide base (PGB) structures located in a fabrication yard and awaiting installation. While the requirement for the survey was pressing, the activity needed to be completed safely, accurately, and efficiently.

Our client, however, required an almost-immediate survey and an alternative approach that would not compromise accuracy. The schedule was exceptionally tight as the PGBs were to be installed by a rig. Any delay to the readiness of the PGBs would have had a significant impact on the rig
