ZX 300M Offshore Wind Lidar

Deployed on 100% of buoy types commercially available.

Continuous Wave Lidar technology at the heart of ZX 300M is robust against motion-induced errors.

3 year warranty as standard, keeping your through-life costs to a minimum with no need to service or calibrate during this period - no other Lidar comes close.

Collecting wind data offshore can be prohibitively expensive with tall mast structures.

Floating Lidar has been used to collect data for the purpose of financing offshore wind farms.

Remove the need to work at height actively working towards industry Health & Safety best practice.

Measurements from 10m to 200m provide correlations to existing anemometry at all heights.

More accurately apply curtailment strategies / wind sector management.

Undertake measurements in the case of either turbine / turbine component or power loss on site in support of any insurance claims.

Improve the accuracy of the forecasting model may be used for energy trading, access / egress or planned maintenance forecasting used to reduce Waiting on Weather downtime.

With 1-second Quality Controlled data, a live feed from a permanently installed Lidar may be used to inform transport movements, for example helicopter lifts and craning.

With an almost real-time, accurate shear profile, any airborne movements around site can be conducted more efficiently and allow operators to work with a higher level of certainty within their internally approved safety windows for these operations.

With an almost real-time, accurate shear profile any airborne movements around site can be conducted more efficiently and allow operators to work with a higher level of certainty within their internally approved safety windows for these operations.

Accurate measurement of the vertical profile of wind offshore supports the planning, design, and operations of offshore oil and gas platforms.

Combined with other sensors such as wave radar, a full range of meteorological and oceanographic conditions can be monitored and any effects on platforms quantified.

Extreme events can be monitored and any results fed in to the design of new platforms.
