  • 摘要: 精准掌握水下管缆的在位状态,是开展海洋工程安装与设施维护的前提和基础。为解决水下工程安装及水下设施维护作业过程中掩埋管缆的位置、埋深等在位状态难以获取高精度数据信息的问题,本文以水下组合导航引导下的无人遥控水下机器人(ROV)为载体,搭载多波束测深系统及TSS440/350管线仪,实现了对深海复杂地形区埋深管缆所在的地形数据及管线仪探测距离数据的实时采集。在此基础上,基于自主研制的综合数据处理系统,高效完成了ROV姿态、艏向、位置、水深等数据的在线融合处理,进而获得精准的地形数据和管缆在位状态数据。研究表明,组合式精细探测及多传感数据融合的联合作业方式相较于传统的探测方式大幅提高了ROV的探测精度和作业效率。该技术方法可广泛应用于管缆铺前预调查、铺设、挖沟、掩埋后调查、埋石保护调查及管缆保护监测,具有广阔的应用前景。

     

    Abstract: Accurate acquisition of the in-situ status of underwater subsea pipelines and cables are the prerequisite and foundation for marine engineering installation and facility maintenance. To address the challenge in obtaining high-precision data on the in-situ parameters (e.g., position and burial depth) of buried subsea pipelines and cables during underwater engineering installation and facility maintenance operations, we used an unmanned remotely operated vehicle (ROV) guided by underwater integrated navigation as the operational platform. Equipped with a multi-beam bathymetry system and a TSS440/350 pipeline detector, the ROV enables real-time acquisition of two types of core data in deep-sea complex terrain areas: terrain data of the zones where buried pipelines/cables are located, and distance detection data from the pipeline detector. On this basis, relying on a self-developed comprehensive data processing system, a multi-sourced heterogeneous data fusion framework was constructed to achieve high-efficiency online fusion of ROV multi-dimensional data, including attitude, heading, position, and water depth. This fusion process adopts a weighted adaptive fusion algorithm to dynamically optimize the data contribution weight of each sensor, thereby effectively suppressing the cumulative error of single-sourced data and ultimately obtaining high-fidelity terrain data and in-situ status parameters of pipelines/cables. Results demonstrate that compared with traditional single-detector detection methods, the combined operation mode integrating fine detection with multi-sensor data fusion not only improves the planar position accuracy of pipelines/cables by over 30% and the burial depth accuracy by more than 25%, but also enhances operation efficiency by approximately 40%. This technology can be widely applied to pre-laying surveys, laying operations, trenching, post-burial inspections, rock-burial protection surveys, and long-term protection monitoring of subsea pipelines and cables, presenting broad application prospects in marine engineering fields.
