NOAA RAMA Mooring Maintenance Project
from 2015 onwards Meteorological Buoy Deployment, and Recovery Seychelles EEZ, Nov 2015 / 2016 / 2017 / 2018 / 2019 The MV Tethys Supporter returned to Port Victoria after a second successful mission, launching two NOAA meteorological buoys in the Seychelles EEZ.
The vessel also recovered two buoys that were launched a year ago. The meteorological buoys are part of the NOAA RAMA (Research Moored Array for African-Asian-Australian Monsoon Analysis and Prediction). This network of buoys collect meteorological data from the surface and below the water. The data is transmitted daily via satellite to a NOAA center. The data is used analyze and predict weather conditions, cyclones, can assist in warning of tsunamis, and for many other scientific purposes. The collected data is free and available for all interested organizations. |
Superyacht Support work
2017 and 2018 Setting water park in the Seychelles inner islands Seychelles granitic islands, April 2017 and April 2018. The vessel's and its crew's task was to set this sensitive water park every day in different locations in the Seychelles granitic islands.
After each day, the equipment had to be cleaned, deflated and stored on board. It had to be moved to different location overnight, to be re-set in the new location at first light. After anchoring the park, the vessel had to move away, out of sight for the superyacht clients. The vessel was on stand-by, in case the park was drifting away, or needed support. |
