Purchase of Navigation Sonar, Spare Parts and Services for the Danish Navy vessels for use in Greenland territorial waters among others

Danish Defence Acquisition and Logistics Organization

This Framework Agreement includes non exclusive purchase of equipment and services needed for Navigation sonars.
Today Danish Navy vessels sail as patrol vessels in Greenland territorial waters. Large areas of these ice filled waters are still unsounded and unmapped. For safe navigation in uncharted waters these vessels will be equipped with navigation sonar.
The navigation sonar shall provide reliable sonar image in ‘real time' and data of water depths ahead of the vessel, down to a depth that is safe for the vessel to pass over.
The navigation sonar shall be based on multi beam technology.
An essential feature shall be a sonar picture, easy to interpret, and which provides clear indication of underwater structures that may present navigational danger to the vessel.
It is an important feature that operators only need to adjust a few parameters to optimize sonar performance.
The sonar shall provide an underwater field of view, covering at least a sector in front of the vessel.
The sonar shall be mounted in the forward part of the vessel and forward of a nearby down-looking multibeam survey sonar.
Concurrent operation of navigation sonar and survey sonar should not cause interference for the survey sonar operating at 100 kHz frequency.
The sonar transducer shall be protected from ice floating in seawater and around the hull. This must be accomplished by making the transducer retractable using a hoist or some similar functionality.
The setting and retracting function of the sonar transducer shall, as a minimum, be executable from the bridge. Any setting and retracting function shall be part of the delivery.
Transducer status, in/out, shall be indicated at bridge.
Sonar picture and sonar data shall be presented on colour display on the vessel bridge.
Own ship motion and position data are available for the sonar system. The navigation sonar system should comply with data in NMEA 0183 format.
Power to navigation sonar will be supplied from ships power system.
