DINA POLARIS
DINA POLARIS + GMTR120
+ GMTR120
BUILT ICE CLASS A1
FOR HARSH CONDITIONS
The Dina Polaris was built in 2017 and is a DP2 integrated geotechnical survey vessel (IGSV), specially designed for research in harsh weather conditions. She is an ice class A1 vessel constructed according to Baltic rules allowing her to operate in cold climate environments in ice thickness up to 0.8m.
Certified Clean Design, she was designed and built to minimise her working footprint on the environment.
ON-BOARD SYSTEMS
ON-BOARD SOIL LABORATORY
The Dina Polaris is fitted with a Geoquip Marine soil laboratory, enabling our geotechnical engineers to immediately conduct soil classification and determine strength parameters for design, analysis and assessments in real time whilst offshore The data allows our engineers to perform spudcan penetration and/or pile capacity/installation analysis on-board as the borehole progresses, allowing an optimisation of the actual borehole depth.
The laboratory is equipped with the necessary tools to conduct standard soil tests. Routine sample handling, photography, classification and storage are part of the everyday work process in the laboratory. The testing regime on samples varies and can be tailored to your project.
Recovered samples are stored in a temperature-controlled environment prior to shipment to an onshore facility.
SEABED SYSTEMS
As an option, the Dina Polaris can carry Geoquip Marine’s GMC201 20T seabed unit to rapidly conduct an array of in situ tests.
When your project requires in situ testing, in either shallow or deep water, the seabed unit can be quickly deployed offering faster turnaround and reducing costs.
The seabed system is deployed through the vessel’s moonpool using the GMTR120 rig’s derrick and compensation system.
