Sweden – Unmanned underwater vehicles – USV / Wave glider for specific marine research

The Department of Marine Sciences at the University of Gothenburg (The University) has an ongoing oceanography research program in remote areas of the Southern Ocean and the subtropical South Atlantic. The research program requires long-endurance (5-10 months) deployments of uncrewed surface vehicles (USV) in challenging high wind, high wave, and strong current environments for scientific data collection. For this program the University requires two (2) technically sophisticated and robust USV platforms.
