Slick Sleuth Offshore Slick Guard Buoy

Monitoring Buoys

  • Application: Pollution and multi parameter monitoring at desalination plant intake channels
  • Description: InterOcean’s Slick Guard monitoring buoy are an integrated system consisting of Slick Sleuth oil pollution monitor, self-contained solar/batter power, wireless data/alerts and a ‘catamaran’ style buoyancy platform. Additional METOC and water quality sensors can be added as an option. These buoy systems are single-point moored anywhere there is value in real-time monitoring, including desalination plants, environmentally sensitive habitats, aquaculture and fish farms, etc.

ROV/ROTV Winch

  • Application: Towing winch for High-resolution underwater search and mapping systems.
  • Description: A highly mobile deployable tool for mapping and searching applications. This umbilical handling system offers reliable deployment, recovery and towing of search and mapping systems.
  • Challenge: The handling system/winch must be mobile and transportable, able to operate in any environment or with any power source.
  • Solution: InterOcean Systems developed a high performance electro-hydraulic drive with full redundancy to operate over the full range of available electric power or direct hydraulic input. Winch features auto-rendering, tension control, and cable monitoring systems.
Slick Sleuth Offshore Loading Buoy

Loading Buoys

  • Application: Oil spill monitoring and detection system for SPM/SBM/CALM types of Offshore Loading Buoys & Terminals
  • Description: Slick Sleuth model SS320s are installed on oil transfer buoys for real-time monitoring, often supplied as an integrated systems inclusive solar power, wireless telemetry, and system software for real-time monitoring and alerts. The spill detector pictured here is installed adjacent to the floating hose coupling that connects the buoy to the nearby oil tanker. A second detector (not visible) is installed on the opposite side of the buoy. One to four sensors are installed per buoy.

Intervention Winch

  • Application: Tether handling winch for manned intervention
  • Description: Man-rated, Lloyds approved handling system for inspection and intervention
  • Challenge: Safe and transportable diver deployment/management winch system with redundant design allowing deployment of second payload if needed
  • Solution: InterOcean Systems developed a fully redundant, electrohydraulic-drive waterfall drum winch system with cross-over hydraulic connections used for independent or synchronized control of dual drums. Integrated within a fully-portable ISO compatible package. Incorporates auxiliary power for crane integration and lights for 24/7 operation.
Slick Sleuth SmartBoom

Boom Guard Monitoring Buoy

  • Application: Remote monitoring of oil containment booms; position, orientation, and pollution detection
  • Description: The Boom Guard monitoring buoy and Smart Boom technology are new system concepts developed at InterOcean Systems. The buoy consists of universal slide-connectors, integral Slick Sleuth oil spill sensor, GPS/heading sensor (for position and geo-fencing), and satellite transceiver. The system is fully self-contained, is designed to connect to any standard (ASTM) boom, and operates continuously for one-month on battery power alone.

Production Rigs and Platforms

  • Application: Continuous monitoring of sea surface for leaks and spills under/around manned and un-manned offshore platforms. Real-time monitoring and alert systems are supplied as capital equipment, or offered as an Oil Spill Monitoring Service
  • Description: InterOcean's innovative Rig Guard system is tailored to each platform application, consisting of 1-4 sensors per platform, which are mounted on corners or sides of the platform well above the water surface. Options include cameras, local A/V alarms, wireless communications, and several user interface software options (industrial ouputs, base station, or web portal). Offshore installation support and periodic maintenance services are also optional.

Instrument Deployment Winch

  • Application: Offshore instrument deployment.
  • Description: Deployments of deep water current meters, sonar transponders, and sound velocity profilers from offshore platforms serves many purposes. From assessing the vertical profile of currents before launching ROV, to a CTD/ acoustic sound velocity profile for calibration of the underwater beacons used for positioning.
  • Challenge: To develop a multi-purpose winch that is used for instruments deployment and recovery from offshore rigs and platforms. May require explosion-proof (EXd or ATEX) classification.
  • Solution: InterOcean Systems has instrument deployment winch solutions of different sizes and capabilities, built to withstand the rigors of the offshore environment for dependable long term operations.
