The vessel R / V Imora was equiped with the Neptune 3000 CPT System to carry out multiple CPT pushes.

Datem have built and supplied 2 Neptune 5000 thruster units for their customer based in Great Yarmouth, Gardline Geosciences.

The units will firstly be used in Norway. The Neptune 5000 allows for a greater pushing force of up to 3.5 tonnes. The units are a heavy duty version of the Neptune 3000 CPT System. The frame was built not supplied by Datem, instead it was created by Gardline to house the Datem Neptune 5000 thruster unit and electronic pods.

The Datem Neptune Control and Acquisition Software Suite was supplied with two operating PC’s running the Microsoft Windows Vista Operating System.
