Fathom Systems Win Gas Analyser Orders

Fathom Systems have recently been awarded two significant Gas Analyser orders for two state of the art 24-man DSVs.

The first of these orders is to provide 44 complete gas analyser systems for Subsea 7's latest DSV 'Seven Atlantic'. This order is awarded through Dive system manufacturer Divex and represents the single largest Gas Analyser order to date.

The second order received was from Drager Safety in Lubeck Germany for 25 analyser systems. These will be installed in the Saturation control room of the 24-man dive system being built for the Acergy Havila.

Both vessels are implementing sophisticated automated control systems for maintaining the Divers' environment in the chambers and in the water. Fathom Systems is delighted to be selected as the supplier of choice for two prestigious system designs.

Deliveries are scheduled during December 2009 and January 2010.

Acergy Havila

Acergy are building a state of the art 24-man diving support vessel (Acergy Havila). This vessel incorporates a revolutionary diving system design created by Drager in Lubeck, Germany. The twin-bell system incorporates advanced automation technologies developed in-house by Drager, and in realising this Fathom Systems have been selected to supply the complete divers' gas analysis systems for the vessel. In addition, Fathom are also supplying the bell onboard-gas instrumentation and umbilical termination boxes.

iBIS Bell Mux

Fathom Systems have recently delivered four complete Diving Bell fibre-optic multiplexer systems which provide a state of the art communications link between the surface vessel and the Divers. These systems are installed on two 24-man twin-bell diving systems for the Skandi Arctic (Technip) and Seven Atlantic (Subsea 7). The iBIS system provides NORSOK compliant diver monitoring, telemetry and video transmission over optical fibre and integrated high-quality digital diver voice communications.

Start-up Stars

Fathom Systems were one of 10 finalist companies in the 2008 HSBC Start-up Stars competition from over 1400 UK entries. Although we didn't manage to clinch the £50,000 top prize, the Award Ceremony at the Dorchester Hotel in London was a memorable occasion for the 13 Fathom representatives attending!
