Poster: Building a test-bed for wireless sensor networking for under-water oil and gas installations

When the oil and gas industry moves its production facilities into even more challenging environments, like the off-shore fields in the arctic areas, advanced use of information and communication technology (ICT) is imperative. Sensor network research lacks results from experiments with real communications between real sensors. At the University of Oslo, Norway, we are in the initial phase of building an underwater sensor networking lab, in order to be able to get such research results.
