Pipeline/Cable Route Survey
A Pipeline or Cable Route Survey is a specialized type of hydrographic survey that assesses the underwater environment for planned pipelines or cables. It involves mapping the seabed to identify obstacles, such as rocks or wrecks, and to understand the water depth and current conditions. This survey is crucial for ensuring the safe and efficient installation and operation of underwater infrastructure. The data collected helps make informed decisions about the best route to minimize environmental impact and avoid hazards. Overall, it ensures that these installations are secure and effective in their intended purpose.
