The company Orion Europe, already a partner of Resinex in various projects in the Black Sea, has requested our collaboration again to participate in a public tender related to EMSO-EUXINUS, a research infrastructure that is part of the EMSO ERIC system and is dedicated to environmental monitoring of the Black Sea.
The project, operationally coordinated by GeoEcoMar, one of Romania’s leading marine and geological research institutes, aims to monitor marine natural hazards in the Black Sea, with the goal of collecting data to prevent and mitigate the impact of events such as earthquakes and tsunamis.
Resinex provided the necessary buoyancy solutions for the project, focusing on the implementation of:
- Three elastic beacons equipped with solar panels and a focal plane of 7500 mm, each fitted with a tsunami detector.
- Three light buoys, also equipped with solar panels and measurement sensors, with a light signal visible up to 5 nautical miles and a net buoyancy of 2000 kg.
- Nine spherical support buoys, designed to reach depths of up to 100 meters, useful for supporting the detection equipment necessary for scientific measurements on the seabed.
These devices are equipped with advanced sensors that collect acoustic data and transmit it in real time to the surface buoys. The data is then sent via satellite to the EUXINUS Marine Natural Hazards Monitoring and Alarm Center in Constanța. This center, thanks to cutting-edge technological infrastructure and specialized software, ensures continuous monitoring, processing, and automatic transmission of data, ensuring rapid interventions in case of hazards.
Resinex solutions will allow this infrastructure to remain operational in the long term, providing high-quality environmental and geophysical data to improve safety and prevention in the Black Sea.
