Light StructuresMaking Structural Health Monitoring smarter with Motion Reference Units
As the maritime industry accelerates its journey towards smarter, more efficient digital operations, structural health monitoring systems are playing a central role in operational efficiency, safety and sustainability. These systems increasingly depend on real-time, high-fidelity data from Motion Reference Units (MRUs) to contextualise structural stresses with the vessel’s motion in a given sea state. This is especially important in meeting the evolving requirements of classification society SMART notations from bodies such as the American Bureau of Shipping (ABS) and DNV.

ShoreConnection InternationalShoreConnection ensures safe landing for thousands of helicopters with Norwegian Subsea Motion Reference Units
Helideck Motion Monitoring & Weather Data Systems (HMS) provide real-time motion and environmental data essential for flight planning and for pilots to remain in safe control during take off and landing from moving helidecks. The HMS depends on Motion Reference Units (MRU) installed directly on to the support structure that continuously measure the helideck’s movement. Leading HMS manufacturer ShoreConnection chooses MRUs built by Norwegian Subsea.

MirosMiros-Group reduces wave radar maintenance and lifetime costs using Norwegian Subsea Motion Reference Units
Motion Reference Units (MRUs) are crucial in wave radar technology, providing precise measurements of platform motion to accurately separate true wave patterns from a vessel's movements, therefore ensuring reliable data for maritime operations. However, before leading wave radar manufacturer Miros started working with Norwegian Subsea in 2016, it could be said that the MRU market was holding their potential back.
