Fugro deployed a Wavescan buoy at three locations to measure waves, currents and meteorological and seawater parameters, the company says. A long mooring measured current profiles over the complete water depth of about 2400 metres, as well as seawater temperature and salinity. A short mooring was deployed to acquire near-seabed currents.
“We demobilised the equipment in June and we are now processing the data from the final phase,” says Jonathan Ainley, commercial manager at Fugro GEOS.
