Wärtsilä CyScan MK4
SWIFT MARINE TECH SERVICES PTE LTD provides Wärtsilä CyScan Mk4 Dynamic Positioning (DP) Laser Reference Systems, including supply, installation, commissioning, calibration, maintenance, troubleshooting, repair, spare parts support, software assistance, and offshore technical services across Singapore, the Asia-Pacific region, the Middle East, and worldwide.
The Wärtsilä CyScan Mk4 is a high-precision Laser Position Reference Sensor (PRS) that delivers accurate range and bearing measurements for DP vessels. Using laser technology and passive retro-reflective targets, it provides a reliable local position reference for safe station keeping in offshore construction, drilling, subsea, renewable energy, FPSO, and platform support operations.
Wärtsilä CyScan Mk4 DP Laser Reference System – Supply, Installation, Calibration & Technical Support by SWIFT MARINE TECH SERVICES PTE LTD
The CyScan Mk4 is a proven Dynamic Positioning Laser Reference System engineered to provide an independent and highly accurate Local Position Reference System (LPRS) for DP vessels operating in complex offshore environments.
Unlike satellite-based positioning systems, CyScan Mk4 measures the vessel’s position relative to passive retro-reflective targets installed on offshore structures, platforms, wind turbines, vessels, or fixed marine installations. This independent positioning capability enhances DP redundancy, improves operational reliability, and supports safe vessel operations where precise positioning is critical.
The system continuously transmits range, bearing, relative movement, and position correction data directly to the vessel’s Dynamic Positioning control system, enabling rapid response and accurate station keeping.
How the Wärtsilä CyScan Mk4 Works
Laser Position Measurement
The CyScan Mk4 transmits precision laser signals toward passive retro-reflective targets installed on offshore structures or designated reference points.
Range Calculation
Using advanced laser ranging technology, the system accurately determines the distance between the vessel and the target.
Bearing Determination
Integrated laser scanning optics continuously calculate the vessel’s relative bearing, ensuring precise positional awareness.
Real-Time Position Reference
The measured positioning data is transmitted directly to the Dynamic Positioning system, enabling continuous thruster corrections for safe and stable vessel station keeping.
Advantages of Wärtsilä CyScan Mk4
Exceptional Positioning Accuracy
Provides precise local positioning information for demanding offshore Dynamic Positioning operations.
Independent DP Reference Source
Functions alongside GNSS, DGPS, microwave positioning systems, and other Position Reference Systems to improve redundancy.
Enhanced Operational Safety
Supports safe vessel positioning during close-proximity offshore operations around fixed and floating installations.
Reliable Station Keeping
Reduces vessel position drift while maintaining stable positioning during critical offshore activities.
Improved Offshore Productivity
Fast positioning updates enable efficient vessel movements, reducing operational delays and improving overall project performance.
Proven Offshore Reliability
Widely installed on offshore construction vessels, drilling units, accommodation vessels, cable-laying vessels, survey vessels, renewable energy support vessels, and FPSOs worldwide.
