Integrated Maritime Awareness

The threats to installations at sea are hybrid
Critical attacks can be both physical and digital, and having complete awareness of maritime security is increasingly difficult for operators on their own. Unless it is backed by sufficient data from multiple sources, decision making is at best inefficient and at worst can cause an escalation of threatening situations.

Real-time situational awareness and decision support for safety, security and effiency
KONGSBERG’s Integrated Maritime Awareness system enables accurate and timely decision making. It brings together data from multiple sources and sensors, runs advanced analytics and provides an accurate overview of installation security. Operators are alerted to abnormal behaviour, dark vessels or security threats, and given the tools and information they need to deal with them effectively.

It is easy to establish alerts and report scenarios based on real time activity and history on specific targets and vessels. For example: making geo-fencing around an installation and reporting on all incoming activity, detection and reporting on abnormal behaviour, or environmental protection like oil spill and gas leak detection.

Subsea Pipeline Patrol Uncovers Potential Threat.

A Hugin Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (1) is patrolling a vital subsea pipeline on the seabed. It discovers an object in the previously mapped seabed next to the pipeline. When the Hugin resurfaces, operators check the data and see that it looks like an explosive device.

They check the KSAT satellite feed (2) on their Integrated Maritime Awareness Interface (3) and discover that six ships have crossed close enough to the site in the time since the last patrol. One of these vessels was sailing without the Automatic Identification System (AIS) and has therefore become the prime suspect.

The system identifies the vessel that turned off its AIS, and operators immediately alert all necessary authorities to apprehend the vessel and investigate the explosive device.
