Marine environments are notoriously difficult to study. It’s only within the last few decades that technology has enabled any systematic and scientific exploration of what lies beneath.
The submarine cable market is booming. Every segment of the market, from offshore wind to interconnectors to fiber optics, has experienced strong growth for several years and are seeing some of the strongestlevels of deployments in their history.
As the Atlantic hurricane season approaches, ON&T takes a look at the oceanographic technologies helping to forcast extreme weather events and aid in coastal recovery efforts.
The offshore wind market is beginning to show signs of going global.
The exploration of new frontiers calls for groundbreaking innovation. This is particularly true when it comes to the application of offshore technology engineered to meet the future challenges of the oil & gas, renewable energy, telecoms, marine mining and trenching industries.
Seep hunting and geochemical exploration are increasingly important considerations for the oil and gas industry.
ON&T recently caught up with Ted Brockett, one of the pioneers of seabed mining technology, to take a look back at the early days of ocean exploration.
By Gerrard Barron, Chairman & CEO, DeepGreen Metals Inc. Tesla founder Elon Musk said recently, “When Henry Ford made cheap reliable cars, people said, ‘what’s wrong with a horse?’” Fast forward about a century, and people sceptical about electric vehicles cite poor range and a high cost of entry as reasons that the world will never ‘go electric’.
Living creatures are loaded with sensors. We see, here, taste, and smell using devices loaded onto an ambulatory vessel capable of traversing land or water: our bodies. But that is far from the only sensory organ providing information about the world around us.
