Wavefront Systems - Model Sentry IMS -Subsea Integrity Monitoring Sonar System

SHARE
Sentry IMS, developed by Wavefront Systems Ltd, is an advanced integrity monitoring sonar system, tailored specifically for subsea applications in the oil and gas sector. This system provides 360° environmental monitoring, capable of scanning over a billion cubic feet of seawater from a single location. It effectively detects even minute leaks in hydrocarbon infrastructure, with a remarkable sensitivity to leak rates as minute as 0.1 litre per minute for gas and 1 litre per minute for oil. The automated technology minimizes false alarms and eliminates the need for constant supervision, identifying integrity breaches to within a few meters. Designed for flexibility, it supports both wired and standalone battery-powered configurations, allowing for varied deployment scenarios. Integrated with Solstice MAS technology, Sentry IMS extends its capabilities to include advanced subsea asset inspection and leak detection across extensive underwater domains, delivering reliability and precision in real-time monitoring affairs.

When deployed around your crucial seabed assets, Wavefront’s field-proven hydrocarbon and CCS Integrity Monitoring Sonar – Sentry IMS – is designed to continuously check billions of cubic feet of seawater around the sensor for signs of containment issues.

Sentry IMS has been developed to automatically warn of integrity breaches connected to subsea oil and gas installations and equipment. Sentry IMS can monitor over a billion cubic feet of seawater in a 360° envelope from a single monitored location.

 
  • Developed using our detection, localisation and classification sonar technology, tried, tested and trusted throughout the offshore sector
  • With 360° coverage and high volumetric monitoring capabilities from a single location, the Sentry IMS sonar leak detector can detect the smallest of leaks at ranges in excess of 500 meters
  • Automated operation with a low false alarm rate means there’s no need for constant oversight
  • Integrity breaches are localised to a few metres the moment they are detected
  • Easy to deploy and recover via ROV, Sentry IMS is perfect for short monitoring projects

Active

An active sonar, Sentry IMS works by projecting a high bandwidth pulse over a short duration, into the water. It listens for echoes from any objects such as ROVs, structures or hydrocarbon leaks.

Automatic

Each system is fully automated, so if a hydrocarbon discharge is detected, the alarm is raised. Data on the leak position is displayed and transmitted automatically to your remote sonar monitoring stations.

Flexible

With wired and battery-powered configurations, Sentry IMS provides flexibility for how the system is used. Onshore remote access enables easy configuration and monitoring.
