Global Positioning System GPS
Any reference system with accuracy (standard
deviation) less than 1 meter and with an update
rate of minimum 1 second is allocated equal
weighting in the DP system.
The GPS is of such nature.

SSBL as reference to Dynamic Positioning
The Super Short Base Line (SSBL) principle:
(Some say Ultra Short Base Line or USBL)
Positioning based on distance and angle measurements
from one vessel-mounted transducer to one seabed
transponder.
ƒ System accuracy (standard deviation) is approximately
0,2% of slant range or +/- 1 m at 500 m depth.
ƒ Update time is 1 second in water depths down to
approximately 700 m, and from then increasing with 1
second for every 700 m extra depth. I. e. update rate is
from 1 to 6 seconds dependant on water depth.

LBL as reference to Dynamic Positioning
The Long Base Line (LBL) principle:
Positioning based on distance measurements from
one vessel-mounted transducer to one seabed
transponder-array with known geometry.
ƒ System accuracy (standard deviation) is
within 1 meter regardless of depth.
ƒ Update time is from 2,5 seconds to 6 seconds
dependant on water depth

DP weights its Reference Systems
If you have more GPS systems in the solution
then the HPR is even less weighted. And if the
LBL have less than 1m accuracy for short periods,
that weight it even less.
The Implication of this is that the DP system is
vulnerable agains GPS failures, which tend to be
common between the GPS system.

Nature of Acoustics and INS
Ideal combination
Acoustic positioning:
Relativ high and evenly distributed noise. No position drift
Inertial positioning:
Very low short term noise. Relativ large position drift

Easy to install HW and SW
A HAIN computer interfaces:
•Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU)
•Acoustic Positioning system (HiPAP or HPR)
The HAIN computer outputs improved
reference data to DP and improves thereby
also the DP itself!

The standard deviation is on the scale of a meter for the entire period.
Except for incidents on 2007-07-12 and 2007-08-03.
There are periods where the reported accuracy is slightly poorer.

HAIN and HiPAP are compared. Measurements are of North position.
HAIN positions are smoother than HiPAP positions (as expected).
HAIN and HiPAP correspond well in the measurements.

Snapshot of the DP screen - Eirik Raude
At the instant the snapshot was taken, both HIPAP LBL systems have zero weight (due to update rate).
HAIN has zero weight because of being in monitoring mode.
All four GPS's have the same weight because all have std. dev. less than 1 meter.

The above shows that neither SSBL nor LBL will be able to achieve
as high weighting as GPS in the DP.
1)Accuracy of 0,2 % of depth
2)Travel time of 1,3s plus computation time

The above shows that the HAIN SSBL principle could be used with
high DP weight in 1000 m depth compared to only 500 m without HAIN.
The above shows that the HAIN LBL principle also obtain the high DP
weight as the update rate to DP will be 1 second – same as the GPS gives.

HAIN benefits in Dynamic Positioning
Extends both SSBL and LBL operational depths
Enables use of slow acoustic ping rate (thereby
saving batteries)
Position update continues in case of acoustic dropout
Reliable and independent reference to DP if drop
out of GPS
The IMU in HAIN provides also Roll, Pitch and
Heading data

HAIN conclusions from DrillRig Eirik Raude
The HAIN system onboard Eirik Raude was running while the vessel was
in operation in the Gulf of Mexico 2007-07-07 to 2007-08-09.
Except for two distinct incidents, (one operator shut down and one power
failure) which caused the HAIN not to function for 10-20 minutes, the
analyzing report concludes that;
•HAIN was far superior to the HiPAP alone in performance
•HAIN was functioning well for the entire period
•A Hain system weighted similar to the GPS would add
security to the DP ( 1m accuracy and 1 sec update rate)
•Allow more individual reference systems to be weighted
equally.
