BPP possesses advanced data analytic capabilities, developed from our work in the offshore wind farm sector, which are crucial for protecting the UK’s vital maritime infrastructure. These techniques utilise sensor outputs from optical fibres to monitor operational status, detect emerging faults, and identify potential interferences or sabotage of critical subsea cables and pipelines.
Development of Data Analytic Techniques
- We develop sophisticated data analytic techniques for monitoring subsea cables.
- Development of data analytic techniques that use DTS and DAS sensor outputs from optical fibres to characterise the operating status and emerging faults in telecoms and power cables.
Interference and Sabotage Characterisation
- Our analytic techniques can identify and characterise interferences with critical infrastructure.
- Techniques are capable of being inverted by using their output to locate and characterise interferences and potential sabotage of cable links.
- Ability to identify the location and nature of any emerging interference with the infrastructure.
Operationalisation and Monitoring Systems
- We support the transition of these analytic techniques into routine, automated monitoring systems for enhanced operational capability.
- Support for operationalising analytic techniques and integrating them into routine automated monitoring systems.
Submarine Detection Enhancement
- Our experience in subsea cable design can be leveraged to enhance submarine detection capabilities.
- Utilisation of long experience in subsea telecoms and power cable designs for providing cable design and engineering services to enhance and develop submarine detection capabilities.
