Aspect Land & Hydrographic Surveys owns and operates its own survey vessels, used throughout the UK on a variety of survey projects enabling fast and efficient mobilisation to site of our survey teams, sometimes at short notice, where of benefit to the client.

MV Seahorse (Argyll Workboats)

Aspect Land & Hydrographic Surveys have a working relationship with Argyll Workboats Ltd for charter of their vessel for offshore survey projects.

MV Seahorse is an ideal offshore survey vessel with multi-disciplinary functionality. Combined simultaneous data capture of multibeam bathymetry, side-scan sonar and geophysical sensors over 24-hour working periods are well within the vessel's capabilities.

The vessel has accommodation for 8 personnel with a survey room, galley, mess room and lounge facilities. Deployment and recovery of survey equipment is safely and efficiently carried out on the spacious 70m2 of working area available on the aft deck. There is an enclosed workshop to mob / demob and calibrate equipment undercover from the elements.

A large 6 tonne hiab with winch wire and a 3 tonne derrick are also available, used in the deployment of ADCP units and geotechnical equipment such as gravity and vibro-coring.

Remote Sensor

Our purpose-built survey vessel, Remote Sensor, is an MCA Cat III 8.0m road transportable shallow-draught catamaran with forward cabin, stainless steel keel bands, tunnelled rear hulls, central moon-pool, 10.0kVa water-cooled diesel generator and twin 90Hp engines mounted on jacks, making it ideal for operation within shallow water.

Remote Sensor is capable of survey in up to Force 4-5 Beaufort wind scale due to its excellent sea going capabilities. The vessel is a twin hulled catamaran and is very stable even when ‘beam on’ in a swell. Survey works have continued in conditions where traditional monohull vessels have had to retire.

Remote Sensor has the power to return to harbour quickly and safely in the event of a sudden change in conditions. The vessel hulls are lined with stainless steel keels band enabling beaching of the vessel in extreme circumstances, with the obvious benefits to personnel regarding health & safety.

Remote Sensor

Available for charter hire, including coxswain, Remote Sensor is an ideal platform for hydrographic and oceanographic survey disciplines, including bathymetry surveys, ADCP deployment and recovery, current & turbidity monitoring, ROV & underwater camera inspections, grab sampling, diver led operations, engineering site assessment visits, RTK GPS positioning services and support to civil and marine engineering projects.

The large, spacious cabin allows up to 6 personnel to work in relative comfort and is equipped with kettle, sink, fresh water, microwave, heater, fluorescent lighting and toilet to enable a full day of operation thus offering the client value for money.

Remote Sensor is routinely deployed to complete surveys throughout the entire UK coastline, inland waterways and in the Western Isles, Orkney & Shetland. Fully compliant with all Dangerous Goods Legislation to enable transportation by ferry, the vessel is fully equipped with all necessary Health & Safety equipment including life-raft, with hydrostatic release, distress flares, lifejackets and survival suits.

Client representatives are welcome aboard during survey works but must complete a Health & Safety induction prior to boarding.

Coastal Sensor

Coastal Sensor is a road transportable 6.1m fibreglass hull SPORTIS SK6100K RIB with enclosed cabin, central console, twin 60Hp outboard engines and spacious aft deck that can be used for inshore bathymetry, oceanographic & environmental projects.

The vessel, currently the first of its kind to be operated commercially within the UK, is equipped with a twin seated fully enclosed-cabin, equipped to power a client's laptop computer, and with ample room in the cabin for personnel and equipment, survey works can continue in otherwise impossible weather conditions.

The vessel is piloted by an RYA qualified coxswain and surveyor and equipped with Trimble RTK GPS equipment and Kongsberg EM3002 multibeam echo sounder, enabling positional and depth reading to be taken through the course of the works.

Enviro Sensor

Enviro Sensor is a 4.0m road-transportable LINDER Sportsman 400 aluminium open survey launch, equipped with a 15Hp outboard engine, central console and ample storage space for a range of survey equipment.

The launch is ideal for small inshore and river surveys, including river section surveys, smaller harbour surveys and works within lagoons and ponds.

Easily transportable and made of lightweight material, it can be transported to virtually any inland or landlocked body of water thus enabling survey works to be conducted in previously "unreachable" environments.
