Bringing offshore sensors together into one system

Large-scale subsea templates require coordinated sensors, reliable communications, and software built for the installation. Zupt designs and delivers integrated systems that provide real-time, high-accuracy monitoring in demanding offshore environments.

Working as a consultant or integrated subcontractor, our team manages sensor selection, sourcing, integration, and testing, with support from concept through offshore operations.

Complex Sensor Integration

Zupt develops sensor integration suites for offshore wind and subsea installations. Each suite is tailored to the project and can include:

• Cameras and lights
• Acoustic and mechanical proximity sensors
• GNSS
• Multiplexors
• Inertial measurement units
• Other advanced technologies

Together, these systems provide real-time data and precise control of large subsea templates and offshore structures.

When standard sensors are not enough, Zupt develops custom sensors for the project’s specific conditions. Our proprietary MUX technology and tailored designs provide reliability, cost-effectiveness, and accuracy throughout offshore operations.

Subsea Template Monitoring

Zupt manages the complete template monitoring system, including sensor installation, cable routing, and dimensional control to ensure sensors are precisely positioned and aligned on the template.

The Zupt MUX connects all sensor inputs into one coordinated system. Custom software is developed to the exact specifications of each template, allowing the system to meet individual project requirements.

This combination simplifies data handling, reduces the risk of failure, and provides operators with real-time, high-accuracy monitoring during installation and operation.

The Zupt MUX

The Zupt MUX is a subsea interface that combines sensor inputs and delivers reliable, real-time data transmission. Its daisy-chainable design allows system expansion, while a redundant ring topology improves reliability.

MUX Features

• Expandable configuration: Daisy-chainable design for easy system expansion.
• Built-in redundancy: Ring topology supports reliability.
• High power capacity: Supports lights and sensors, with flexible AC input.
• 10 Gbps uplink: Supports real-time, high-resolution monitoring.
• Rugged titanium housing: Corrosion-resistant, compact, and lightweight.
• Plug-and-play compatibility: Supports remote monitoring and suits installations with limited ROV space.

Support from Concept Through Operations

Zupt combines subsea hardware expertise, custom sensor development, and project-specific software to deliver complete integration and monitoring systems.

This approach improves precision, reliability, safety, and efficiency while reducing risk throughout the project lifecycle. Operators receive the information needed to make informed decisions and maintain control of critical subsea operations.

Verified Before Operations Begin

Each template monitoring system undergoes a bench Factory Acceptance Test (FAT) and a Site Acceptance Test (SAT).

These tests verify complete system functionality and confirm that the integrated system performs as intended before operations begin.
