Below is an overview of the SEAONICS group and its subsidiaries, competence and locations.
Significant Infrastructure
-
SEAONICS have a test site situated in Romania with a full-scale test tower for equipment testing and FAT. This test site will be considered for winch testing during the project.
-
SEAONICS’ test lab for simulation and control system is used for test of control system functionality and coherence. In the lab we can simulate systems from single winch controls to complete distributed control systems. The lab includes CDP Studio: Custom developed hardware independent software platform for design of automation control systems, user interface and real time simulation. CDP Studio will be used in the dynamic simulation of relevant equipment in the project to ensure fit for purpose.
