Terraformer's high-speed position sensor gives your operations team the update rate and precision needed to approach and moor safely — cutting approach time and collision risk on every transfer.
Every STS transfer carries the same underlying risk: two vessels, often hundreds of thousands of tonnes combined, closing distance in open water or at anchorage. Standard GPS and visual estimation update too slowly and too imprecisely for the final meters of approach.
Instead of estimating distance and closing speed, your team sees it — updated fast enough to matter during the final, highest-risk meters of approach. The outcome: shorter approach phases, fewer aborted maneuvers, and a documented, data-backed safety record for every transfer.
Sensor units are installed on the Constant Heading Ship (CHS), markers on the Manoeuvring Ship (MS) — retrofit-compatible, no major structural change required.
Continuous relative-position data — distance, bearing, closing speed — streams in real time throughout the maneuver.
Your bridge team and operations center see live data on their existing displays and act on it immediately.
Up to 1000 refreshes per second vs. ~10 Hz on standard GNSS — continuous situational awareness on final approach.
Sub-centimeter precision, sufficient for safe mooring distances even in restricted space or poor weather.
Continuous closing-speed data supports faster, more confident final approaches — shortening the highest-risk phase.
Proactive course correction instead of reactive response, directly reducing hull-contact risk.
Every transfer generates a time-stamped position record for audits, investigations, and insurer reporting.

Your next STS operation is already scheduled. The question is whether your team will approach it with continuous, high-speed position data — or with the same visual estimation that's created near-misses before.
