Nordic Unmanned (NUMND) continues work for Equinor
Nordic Unmanned has been contracted by Equinor to conduct a study on how Remotely Piloted Aircraft Systems (RPAS) could be used in an offshore airspace between installations and vessels, in search and rescue (SAR) operations, to and from shore travel, and more.
The study will identify suitable solutions for comprehensive operational testing during the summer of 2021, and will focus on the autonomous integration of Remotely Piloted Aircraft Systems (RPAS) in an unmanned traffic management (UTM) airspace, autonomous flight and landings systems, identification of available technology and regulatory requirements.
Vice President of Logistics and Robotization at Nordic Unmanned, Pål Kristensen states: “We are honoured to continue our work with Equinor to implement Remotely Piloted Aircraft Systems (RPAS) to increase safety & efficiency, create increased data value and reduce carbon footprint. In 2020 we created aviation history together, when we completed the world’s first logistics operation with a drone to an offshore installation. This next phase is an important step in the right direction towards a full scale implementation of autonomous Remotely Piloted Aircraft Systems (RPAS) in the offshore oil and gas industry, and we are excited to be selected for this opportunity. This continues to be a game changer! ”
