Seabed CPT

CPT Rig Specifications
Height:	max: 2.8m - min: 2.3m
Length:	2.3m
Width:	2.3m

The Seabed CPT Pushing Frame can be used for geotechnical testing associated with:

Pipelines
Ports & harbours
Dredging and Construction projects
Cable route surveys
Off-shore wind farms
Environmental Survey
Wave Energy

The subsea system is used for determining near shore seabed soil conditions. It is designed to be deployed from a stable positioned vessel or platform, allowing for rapid, live CPT readings. It can be levelled (up to 15 degrees).

The chain drive action of the Seabed CPT allows for a continuous push of 20mm / sec, recording data until target depth or refusal.
