Fugro expanded its services for the offshore oil and gas sector with the addition of high resolution subsea laser scanning specialist technology that can be applied to a wide range of subsea services including metrology, ? eld mapping, structure map- ping, change detection and integrity management. Fugro’s Marine Construction

Survey group recently used subsea laser scanning in a number of projects in the

Gulf of Mexico, including metrology and asset mapping. With subsea laser scan- ning, companies have an opportunity to gather high resolution 3D point clouds of subsea assets which are used to obtain accurate point-to-point measurements.
