Case Study: Allseas achieves zero downtime and reduced operating costs in offshore surveillance with Genetec Security Center

Allseas operators on pioneering spirit handle critical tasks using onboard surveillance

Allseas, a world-leading offshore contractor that operates the 382 m Pioneering Spirit construction vessel, faced a need to scale and improve the performance of its onboard video surveillance so operators could safely monitor complex deep‑sea and heavy‑lift operations. After a two‑month pilot with Alphatron Security, Allseas selected Genetec’s Security Center platform with Omnicast to replace the limited legacy system and provide a dependable, easy‑to‑manage solution.

Genetec implemented Security Center/Omnicast across the vessel, integrating over 400 cameras (retaining 250 existing cameras and adding 150 IP cameras), using Federation to share views with the Iron Lady barge, and deploying features like Failover, Health Monitoring and Plan Manager on 50+ workstations. The Genetec solution delivered measurable impact: zero downtime since installation, reduced operating costs by eliminating flown‑in support engineers, faster onboard maintenance and clearer operator workflows that improved safety and efficiency.
