IMCA digital video publication

Discovering Digital Video – An Introduction to Digital Video and its Benefits is the title of a new publication from the International Marine Contractors Association, which now has over 700 members in 56 countries.

Compiled by the organisation’s Digital Video Workgroup, it’s aimed at users of digital video within the wider marine contracting community, including not only the oil and gas industry but also the cable laying and renewable energy sectors. Among its features is a contractor’s account of the development of digital video followed by a series of case histories dealing with ROV pipeline and structural inspection, pipe laying, and jacket inspection.

Members can download the document free of charge from IMCA’s members only website. Printed copies are alternately available at £15 each for members and £30 for non-members. They can be ordered online at www.imca-int.com/publications.
