LASER DIMENSION MEASUREMENT IN OMAN
In FPSOs, offshore platforms, yachts, ships, and shipyards, EIWAA Marine Services provides high-quality 3D laser tracker dimensional control systems for precise measurements, alignment surveys, as-built drawing preparations, etc. Large, heavy components can be measured with millimeter accuracy by our dimensional specialists using sophisticated portable-type laser tracker measurements. We are a top supplier of laser tracker alignment and inspection services for offshore shipbuilding in Oman. Our dimensional measuring capabilities include high-accuracy dimensional measurements in shipbuilding and offshore fabrication, immediate on-site alignment verification, and 3D data overlay.
By collecting measures in shipyards without cranes, our laser tracker alignment and its dimensional inspection services reduced crane time. In shipbuilding and drydocking facilities, FPSOs and offshore rigs, shipbuilding and ship repair, subsea structures and pipelines, etc., real-time feedback facilitates rapid deviation reporting for quicker decisions and digital documentation for thorough as-built dimensions reports. Our laser tracker inspection services are the best option for high precision with tight tolerance inspection in shipyards and maritime environments. We offer as-built geometry 3D visualization and extreme accuracy of up to +/-0.025 mm, making them perfect for both onshore and offshore environments. The following are just a few of the as-built and crucial alignment surveying services we offer:
- Pre-Cut and Fit-Up of Ship Unit: By minimizing crane handling time and reworks, our dimensions ship survey experts will execute the optimum fit alignment both before and after assembling marine equipment onboard.
- Alignment survey: Using exact 3-axis alignments, our dimensions specialists set centerline benchmarks for the main shaft, axles, bearings, and propulsion system.
- Levelling Survey: To align machinery foundations, engines, winches, pumps, and crane booms with submillimeter alignment accuracy, we are using laser trackers in place of the conventional leveling instruments of total stations and 3D scanners.
- Nuclear and critical components survey: To assess and confirm as-built conditions prior to the installation of piping systems, pressure-retaining components, and nuclear reactor vessels.
- Hull Alignment Survey: To guarantee proper pitch, hull, and yaw angles before welding and manufacturing, hull geometry and orientation are confirmed in three dimensions.
- Offshore platform alignment survey: We offer alignment assistance for flare tower placement, turret alignment, and topside module integration in FPSOs and offshore platforms.
SHIPBUILDING ALIGNMENT SURVEY IN OMAN
For dimensional metrology applications in the machining and assembly processes of the shipbuilding industry, laser trackers are crucial. The main advantage of employing trackers in shipbuilding is that they improve productivity and value of crane time. The crane was employed to hold a manufactured item or ship unit in position for a maximum of one or two days, measured against the drydocked ship unit to which it would be installed. After that, the part was taken out of the crane, returned to the shop, and the process was restarted if additional work was needed.
These combined parts can now be measured in the shop using a laser tracker. The drydocked ship in the yard can then be measured using the same tracker. Software can overlay the two measurements’ data to get a best-fit alignment for the as-built components. Rework can be completed in the shop, conserving the crane’s critical time exclusively for the final welding assembly. The following list includes several surveying, and alignment uses for laser trackers that are now commonplace in the shipbuilding sector. The laser tracker’s advantages include its portability, ease of use, accurate measurement data, capacity to measure both short and long distances, and instantaneous measurement feedback that allows for real-time adjustments.
