Owner of REV Ocean

Length: 600ft

Location: Norway

After the news last summer that the project would be delayed, what’s the latest?

While we patiently wait for the delivery of our vessel, the REV Ocean team is busy working on core science, operations and communications activities that are needed for our operational phase. This also involves working closely with our network of partners and ocean solutions enthusiasts. The length of construction delay is still uncertain and our best estimate for final delivery is still in the range of two to four years. In the meantime, some of the key equipment to be used for our core science work and our charter deep-diving ROV was deployed in 2021 and a new, soon-to-be-named, three-person sub is being launched in Barcelona at the end of April
