Dynamic Positioning (DP)
Is a computer controlled system to automatically maintain a vessel’s position and heading by using its own propellers and thrusters. Position
reference sensors, combined with wind sensors, motion sensors and gyro compasses, provide information to the computer pertaining to the vessel’s
position and the magnitude and direction of external and environmental forces that affect the vessels position.
Global Marine Consultants and Surveyors offer expert services for Dynamic Positioning:
