PipelayView

Real-Time Pipe Installation Modeling

Designed to help pipelay engineers simplify the pipelay installation process, you can leverage numerical and graphical views of pipe installation parameters in real time with PipelayView.

Easily connect to various on-board sensors to obtain vital data and compare it directly with design metrics during installation.

Access Precise Measurements

Rely on PipelayView's optional scanning laser, which can be mounted with a view of the pipe exit from the lay vessel, to gain precise measurement of the pipe exit angle.

You can see the measurements on a bullseye chart that can then be incorporated into your PipelayView screen using 4D Nav's PEMS software module.

Seamless OrcaFlexTM FEA Integration

PipelayView is easily integrated with Orcina's OrcaflexTM FEA (Finite Element Analysis), giving you access to real-time modeling of pipe catenary, touchdown tensions, and fatigue.
