Current meter location study

In Brazil’s Espírito Santo Basin, legislation requires O & G companies to monitor currents through the use of ADCP. This ADCP should located so as to measure the strongest dynamic features, here the Brazil Current.In this example, EO technologies improved the characterization of mesoscale oceanographic features including the Brazil Current. EO can capture imagery over a broad geographic area as well as revisit the same areas at reliable intervals for frequent repeat captures. As this study shows, the combination of several EO products can lead to a very well documented study resulting in the optimal placement of the ADCP. For more information, click here.
