The sigma S6 Current Monitor™ is a radar-based monitoring system that provides current data from mobile stations as well as high spatial resolution current and bathymetry data from fixed locations. This has greatly improved the management of marine activities, such as predicting oil slick drift patterns, enhancing navigation safety and protecting vulnerable coastlines.

Application

Real-time current data at your fingertips

See at a glance the surface current measurements surrounding your operation, allowing you to make safer, more informed decisions. Each coloured box represents an area as small as 50m x 50m or as determined by the operator. The color of the box indicates the speed of the current, while the arrow indicates the direction of the current.

IceNavigator™

The sigma S6 Ice Navigator™ is a radar-based system that provides enhanced ice detection, tracking and analysis. The system can identify open water, icebergs and ridges within the ice sheet. Ice Drift Analysis (IDA), now an optional feature of Ice Navigator, provides operators with unprecedented visibility and information about the movement of floating ice within X-Band radar coverage. Capital expenditures and costs normally associated with activities in areas threatened by ice can be significantly offset.

Application

An important part of ice navigation and ice management planning

Now more than ever, operating in ice-threatened areas such as the Arctic is an essential component of offshore operations. The sigma S6 Ice Navigator™ is the best value ice navigation solution for ice protection, icebreaking, adventure tourism and harbour passages. Designed with safety, efficiency and environmental responsibility in mind, it is the marine industry’s choice for ice-class fleets and now introduces enhanced features for your ice navigation and management requirements. Go beyond today's advanced ice analysis with Ice Navigator™.

Oil spill detection

Sigma S6 oil leak detection combines proven early detection capabilities with presentation of essential leak information on spill volume estimation, deformation and drift, significantly improving response time and mitigating potential environmental impacts. Oil spill detection has been extensively tested and proven effective in independent trials conducted by the Norwegian Association of Clean Ocean Operating Companies (NOFO). Dramatically improve situational and contextual awareness with 24/7/365 coverage. With 360-degree visibility and up to 4 nautical miles of radar range, Oil Spill Detection alerts you to potential oil in the water and outlines it for effective containment and cleanup.

Application

Effective response planning and reporting you can trust

Meet the need for accurate oil spill detection and reporting with the sigma S6 oil spill detection (OSD) system. OSD is industry specified and provides the data portability required to share information in real time with spill response teams, management and other key stakeholders to protect offshore, onshore and corporate assets around the world. It combines proven strengths in early detection with tools that generate essential information about location, spill extent, deformation, drift direction, and volume estimation.

Small target surveillance

The sigma S6 small target surveillance system has proven its value on offshore platforms, support vessels and in a range of coastal surveillance and monitoring applications. Our installed base also includes coastal patrol vessels where the system is used for search and rescue operations as well as detecting small vessels for interdiction and security purposes. Small target surveillance can be used in a variety of applications such as bird detection, ice reconnaissance, wildlife monitoring, and lost container detection.

Application

Maximizing safety, security and vessel uptime

The sigma S6 Small Target Surveillance is trusted worldwide by port authorities, coast guards, police departments and search and rescue operators for key functions including search and rescue, counter-piracy, security monitoring, law enforcement and avoiding unseen dangers. Real-time remote access from anywhere enables control centers to coordinate operations securely and more efficiently.

WaMoS® II

The sigma S6 WaMoS® II is a radar-based wave and surface current monitoring system that provides real-time measurements while the vessel is underway, providing relevant data for local operating areas. The high-definition images of the wave field, combined with digital data and intuitive graphical reports, enable operators to be fully informed in assessing environmental risks and determining safe operating windows.

Application

Wave and surface current monitoring

In an ever-changing environment, sound decision-making at sea requires timely and accurate data. The sigma S6 WaMoS® II is a pervasive, low-maintenance sensor that is easy to deploy and provides real-time insight into your marine environment. For ports, offshore facilities, ships and institutional researchers, WaMoS® II is the world’s leading wave and current monitoring radar. The sigma S6 WaMoS® II reduces the risks involved in offshore operations, providing superior real-time data to assess sea conditions and currents to determine when maximum operating conditions have been exceeded.

Wave signal™

The sigma S6 WaveSignal™ is a radar-based wave system that predicts operating windows during quiet periods in real time, providing valuable information to mariners. Simple and intuitive interface gives operators confidence

Application

A glimpse into the future

Operate with confidence while performing on-deck or outboard activities. The bridge display and accompanying deck signal panel let the crew know that a wave quiet period is approaching.

WaveVision™

The sigma S6 WaveVision™ is a high-resolution radar-based wave measurement system that monitors the sea surface up to 2 km from the radar. If waves exceeding a user-defined height are detected, the system issues an advance warning to alert the bridge crew of potential danger to personnel or assets.

Application

Maximize uptime and minimize risk

sigma S6 WaveVision™ is a wave mapping system that provides real-time warning of waves that are potentially dangerous to your operations. Using your vessel’s navigation radar, WaveVision™ gives you time to take action to ensure the safety of your personnel and equipment.
