The opening of offshore wind development lease blocks on both the east and west coasts of the United States has created significant demand for marine geophysical surveys. The schedule pressures and escalating costs felt by offshore wind developers and their partner electric utilities is quite real, and increased demand for high resolution geophysical (HRG) surveys in the oil and gas industry only place further constraints on survey asset and crew availability.
The Ocean Exploration Cooperative Institute (OECI) Technology Challenge, which took place from May 6 – 22, 2022 in the Pacific Ocean, set out to test collaborative capabilities of multiple uncrewed vessels for ocean exploration expeditions, with the aim of increasing the pace of ocean exploration and finding ways of improving exploration efficiency.
Researchers from NOAA, the state of Michigan, and Ocean Exploration Trust have discovered an intact shipwreck resting hundreds of feet below the surface of Lake Huron. Located within NOAA's Thunder Bay National Marine Sanctuary, the shipwreck has been identified as the sailing ship Ironton. Magnificently preserved by the cold freshwater of the Great Lakes for over a century, the 191-foot Ironton rests upright with its three masts still standing.
In late June 2023, manned submersibles dominated the mainstream headlines, and not for the right reasons. This month’s esteemed guest, Will Kohnen, President & CEO of Hydrospace Group and the current Chair of MTS’ Submarine Committee, joined us to set the record straight on the unrecognized safety record of submarines.
Utilizing surveillance data from dispersed and disparate sensors to know what's happening in the maritime domain is smart idea. The intelligent solution to deal with enormous amount of data is to leverage artificial intelligence. The US Navy's Task Force 59 has done exactly that during the recent Digital Horizon exercise.
