WRS recruits survey positioning specialists who keep offshore operations precisely located. We place positioning surveyors, USBL and acoustic specialists and GNSS experts supporting rig moves, construction vessels, cable and pipeline installation and subsea metrology campaigns worldwide.
What is survey positioning support?
Almost every offshore operation depends on knowing exactly where assets are: positioning rigs during moves, guiding installation vessels along cable and pipeline routes, calibrating USBL systems for subsea construction and providing metrology for spool and jumper installation. Positioning surveyors run the GNSS, acoustic and inertial systems that make this possible, often as the critical link between the survey spread and the bridge or barge control.
Where our positioning personnel work
We supply positioning support to drilling contractors, subsea construction companies, survey contractors and vessel owners, on campaigns from single rig moves to multi-year construction projects across every major offshore region.
