GOING ON LOCATION FEASIBILITY
First Claim
1. A device, comprising:
- an interface configured to receive a signal indicative of motions of an offshore unit;
a memory configured to store a set of values corresponding to acceptable motions of the offshore unit; and
a processor configured to;
determine if a measured motion of the offshore unit exceeds at least one value of the set of values; and
generate an indication that going on location by the offshore unit should be undertaken when the processor determines that the measured motion of the offshore unit is less than or equal to the at least one value.

Abstract
Techniques and devices to assist an offshore unit in going on location and coming off location. A device may include an interface configured to receive a signal indicative of motions of an offshore unit. The device may also include a memory configured to store a set of values corresponding to acceptable motions of the offshore unit, as well as a processor configured to determine if a measured motion of the offshore unit exceeds at least one value of the set of values and generate an indication that going on location by the offshore unit can be undertaken when the processor determines that the measured motion of the offshore unit is less than or equal to the at least one value.

8. A system, comprising:
-
a sensor configured to measure motions of an offshore unit and generate a signal indicative of the measured motions of the offshore unit; and a control monitor configured to be coupled to the sensor, wherein the control monitor comprises; an interface configured to receive the signal indicative of the measured motions of an offshore unit; a memory configured to store a set of values corresponding to acceptable motions of at least one portion of the offshore unit; and a processor configured to; determine if motion of at least one portion of the offshore unit exceeds at least one value of the set of values; and generate an indication that going on location by the offshore unit should be undertaken when the processor determines that the motion of the at least one portion of the offshore unit is less than or equal to the at least one value. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15)

16. A tangible non-transitory computer-readable medium having computer executable code stored thereon, the code comprising instructions to cause a processor to:
-
receive a signal indicative of motion of an offshore unit; receive a predetermined value corresponding to acceptable motions of the offshore unit; determine if the motion of the offshore unit exceeds the predetermined value; and generate an indication that going on location by the offshore unit should be undertaken when the processor determines that the motion of the offshore unit is less than or equal to the at least one value. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20)
