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.

"They are rock solid. Many Norwegian Subsea MRUs have been running 24/7 inside Miros products for up to eight years without issue, producing real-time data every second."

"There’s no need for recalibration, significantly reducing our downtime."

"You get commercial-grade performance at a significantly reduced cost."

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.
