Safe Marine Industry

 

The high operating costs and constraints of the marine environment, exacerbated in deep environments, compel us to limit the risks endured by offshore infrastructures.

A safe marine industry – the main technological challenges

  • Increase our knowledge of marine ecosystems,
  • Develop processes for oceanographic exploration and high-performance production methods,
  • Safe exploration of new resources in ultra-deep waters
  • Anticipate the behaviour and interactions of offshore structures in their environment
  • Develop reliable and safe offshore production structures (from the laboratory to offshore test sites),
  • Develop and protect the coastline,
  • Identification and modelisation of underwater hazards.
