The manned submersible support mother ship? The ship has been used to carry the manned submersibles? The Deepsea Warrior? returned to Sanya harbor. The reporter learned from the Institute of Deep Sea Science and Engineering of the Chinese Academy of Sciences that from February 2, the manned submersible support and guarantee mother ship? Exploration II? Carrying manned submersible? Deep Sea Warrior? No. to the South China Sea to carry out a number of scientific research tasks. The Spring Festival is approaching, the successful completion of various tasks? Exploration II? On the morning of the 10th returned to Sanya.
According to reports, since February 2, the Chinese Academy of Sciences and other 10 units of the 60-member scientific research team, with the? Explore II? to the South China Sea to carry out major scientific and technological programs in Hainan Province? South China Sea deep sea and island reef important biological resources and their environmental adaptability research? and the National Key Research and Development Program (NKRDP) on the sea trial and experimental application of 4500m manned submersible. and other projects to complete the scientific application of deep-diving investigations and self-developed equipment at sea.
During the voyage, the research team completed nine dives in eight days in the relevant areas of the South China Sea, collecting abundant samples of deep-sea organisms, sediments, and water bodies, which provided valuable materials for the subsequent construction of the South China Sea deep-sea biological resource base and the study of the mechanism of organisms adapting to the deep-sea environment. Meanwhile, for the first time, the ? Deep Sea Warrior? and the Deepsea Warrior Luling The joint operation of the mobile multi-site submersible, which provides a new technical means for the fine detection of the local area of the deep seabed, lays a relevant technical foundation for the realization of the disconnected area detection operation in the deep-sea environment.
In 2020, ? Deepsea Warrior? completed a series of deep-diving scientific research missions in the South China Sea and the western Pacific Ocean, with annual dives reaching 117 dives.
2020 The research vessel has also been put into regular operation since the completion of its construction in June last year. 2021,? In 2021, the Explorer II and Explorer II will be in regular operation. and Deepsea Warrior. The Deep Sea Warrior will operate in the South China Sea, the western Pacific Ocean and the western Pacific Ocean. will continue to carry out deep-diving scientific research activities in the South China Sea, the western Pacific Ocean and the South Pacific Ocean and other deep-sea abyssal areas.
