1 Fishing Safely in UK Waters: Kingfisher Charts and FishSAFE

2 Introduction Dr Steve Taylor AFRIN MInstP MIEEE Managing Director Geomatix Ltd Working with: Seafish / Kingfisher Charts since 1992 Fisheries Legacy Trust Company Oil and Gas UK

3 Talk Overview History of Kingfisher Charts Fishing and Subsea Hazards Awareness Transition to Electronic Charts Data Collection and Distribution Data Distribution to Fishing Plotters FishSAFE

4 Frank (Tess) Johnson Worked For Ross Trawlers of Grimsby Sailed on Grimsby Trawler GY 34 Plaice Fishing Grounds North of Norway & Murmansk Coast of Russia 20 years kept meticulous records 1962 Started Kingfisher Charts

5 Kingfisher Charts - Timeline 1962 Tess Johnson Started Kingfisher Charts 1964 Purchased by White Fish Authority 1985 White Fish Authority became Sea Fish Industry Authority 1999 Became Kingfisher Information Service

6 Kingfisher Paper Charts c1980 Fishing Obstructions Wrecks Cables Tows

7 Why Not HO Charts? HO are intended for Surface Navigation Fishing Charts are for Fishing Operations Sub-Sea features not shown on HO Charts Scale insufficiently large for fishing

8 Kingfisher Charts West Little Sole Bank 10 W 49 N

9 Navigation / Positioning Systems Decca Navigation System Used a Hyperbolic Lattice Decca Navigator Units MK Mk Mk Mk Decca Navigator Mk 12 Decca Navigator Mk 21

10 Kingfisher Chart with Decca Hornsea-Spurn c1992

11 Decca CVP Colour Video Plotter Encrypted 3" Floppy Disks "Lease" Revenue Model Arguably first electronic chart plotter

12 Electronic Navigation - Timeline 1960 Transit System - used Doppler Shift 1979 NMEA becomes standard interface 1982 Decca receivers become un-licensed 1983 Shipmate RS IBM PC AT Navstar GPS Install 24 satellites 2000 GPS Dither switched off - 10x improved accuracy 2000 Decca switched off

13 Fishing Vessels c1995

14 UK Fishing Tragedy 10 March 1997 FV Westhaven came fast on pipeline Loss of all lives on board 7 miles from a platform MAIB recommended "fishing industry is reliably informed of the locations of subsea hazards"

15 Major Fishing Hazards Unsupported Pipeline Spans Suspended Well-Heads Manifolds Cables: Repeater / Final Splice

16 Danger of Unsupported Spans Criteria > 08m and > 100m

17 Fishing: The Offshore Industry View Fishing Activity Can damage sub-sea equipment Risks environmental damage from leaks Causes legal liability & costs Is a headache for public relations

18 Offshore Industry: The Fisherman s View Offshore Industries cause: Loss of fishing grounds Fishermen receive no compensation Increases risk of gear loss Increases difficulty of gear recovery Risk of prosecution

19 Fishing and Offshore Industries must co-operate Artists Impression of Seabed "Share the Seabed"

20 Kingfisher Information Sources 1999: Seafish Started an On-Going Initiative: To Gather & Distribute Hazard Data Oil & Gas Data CDA, DEAL, UKOOA now Oil and Gas UK UK Cable Protection Committee now European Subsea Cables Association Wind-farms & Renewables Members of Renewable UK

21 GPS Plotters Fishmaster MacSea/Maxsea Soon followed by many more Most were IBM PC Plotters

22 Kingfisher Charts 2012: Object Tally 1000 Oil and Gas Pipelines 500 Statutory & Surface safety zones Pipeline spans and other features Subsea Installations 300+ Suspended Well-heads 100 Telecommunication Cables 40 Power Cables 4 Gas Supply Pipelines Wind Farms Cables Emergency contact details for each object

23 KISPROC Converts data to a form suitable for Fishing Plotters Displays on most Windows PC & Linux based fishing plotters Uses the "User Layer" as an extra layer Developed at Geomatix Ltd by the author

24 Data Process Data Process Quality checks Format conversion: KISPROC Duplication & Distribution Outputs Fortnightly Bulletin / Yellow Card Fishing Plotters: Over 2000 Plotter Disks FishSAFE cartridges to 250+ Vessels Websites All Free of Charge

25 Updates Updates available 6 month intervals SD cartridges Internet / web 3G in harbour

26 Screenshot: Sodena Fishing Plotter

27 Screenshot: Sodena

28 Screenshot: FishMaster

29 FishSAFE GPS Hazards Plotter with Alarm Original FishSAFE MK Internal Hazards Database Audible and Visible Alarm Alarm Depends on Fishing Activity

30 FishSAFE: Mk Improved Symbology Detailed Object Descriptions Emergency Contact Details High Resolution Colour Display Displays Own Ship Position - doubles as GPS Backup Low Maintenance / High Reliability Meets IP67, immersion to 1m Affordable New MK3 unit with internet at early stages of development

31 Screenshot: Wells

32 FishSAFE Alarm Strategy Green Alarm Vessel is more than 5 minutes away and Less than 3 miles away Objects are within the "keyhole" Orange 5 Minute Vector overlaps a Safety Zone or Safety Area Red Alarm Vessel itself is within Safety Zone or Safety Area

33 FishSAFE Screenshot: Pipelines

34 The Future Installations Decommissioned: Oil - Gas Arrive: Windfarms - Telecomms The Seabed is never Static
