Geotechnical Engineering and Marine Surveys (GEMS) has purchased an OSIL Minibat system to carry out sound-velocity (SV) measurements at a 50km2 site in Asia. The towed system provided continuous measurement without the need to stop the vessel.The Minibat system was fitted with the AML Minos SVP, which directly measures the time of flight of an acoustic ping. Its compact size is suitable for the portable Minibat frame. The OSIL Minibat FC60 is a lightweight, remotely controlled instrument platform designed for use with a range of sensors.
