'Odón de Buen' becomes Spain's largest and most advanced oceanographic ship

El 'Odón de Buen', el nuevo buque Oceanográfico Together with the Centro Superior de Investigaciones Científicas (CSIC) and the Instituto Español de Oceanographía, it forms the core of Cádiz and Cádiz.

En un acto celebrado junto al barco, Clementina de Buen, the niece of the famous Aragonese scientist who gave the ship its name, served as godmother and passed on the classic botella rotura.

Eva Ortega, General Secretary for Research of the Ministry of Science, Innovation and Universities, closed the act together with CSIC President Eloísa del Pino; Astilleros Armón delegado delegado delegado, Laudelino Alperi; and Javier Payuelo, director of Fundación Odón de Buen, as well as local authorities.

El 'Odón de Buen' es last generation research vessel it will allow the whole world to study ecosystems, habitats and marine resources with autonomous underwater equipment, as they will be able to operate at a depth of 6,000 meters.

El barco, con 84.3 metros y en el que se han invertido 85 million de euro -con una contribution del 80% de los fundos Feder-, podra operar en todos los océanos del mundo, even en regiones los océanos del und en regiones, con una autonomía de 50 días.

Bautizado 'Odón de Buen' como In honor of the pioneer of oceanography in Spain And the founder of the Instituto Español de Oceanografía (IEO-CSIC) – the driving force behind the project – the Aragonese Odón de Buen represents a strategic investment in marine research.

Durante los proximos meses There are various systems and equipment for personal equipment and equipment.s, from scientific laboratories to autonomous underwater vehicles.

The Odón de Buen, the new oceanographic vessel that will be linked to the Centro Superior de Investigaciones Científicas and the Instituto Español de Oceanografía, anchored this morning at the Cadiz dock, which will be its port base. The 'Odón de Buen' is a new generation research vessel that will enable the study of ecosystems, habitats and marine environments worldwide with autonomous underwater equipment, as it can operate at a depth of 6,000 meters.

In addition, the crew will receive one intensive form para operar de manera segura y efficiente en las different tipologías de missiones cientificas que se podran llevar cabo en buque.

It is the main oceanographic ship of the Spanish fleet and is designed to carry out to strengthen scientific researchfrom studying marine biodiversity to monitoring climate change.

Por su diseño innovator, su Vanguard technology And multidisciplinary technical solutions, according to the Ministry, will be “a reference ship in its scope in the coming decades.”

Carry out operations in zones not exceeding 1,500 meters, permit Sona bathymetric multihaz de aguas profunda de alta resolution Capable of covering the global ocean, you can control remotely operated vehicles (ROV/AUV).

The ship will have the capacity to accommodate 58 passengers39 of them will be scientists and the rest will be crew.

This design will be innovative, water technology vanguardia y las solutions tecniques multidisciplineres será un buque de referencia In its habitat in the coming decades, it will explore marine biodiversity and monitor climate change.

Characteristics of the ship “Odón de Buen”.

With a length of 84.3 meters and a beam of 17.8 meters, it is the largest oceanographic research vessel in Spain. Equipped with the latest technology is the 'Odón de Buen' Working with the world ocean y Be equipped with in-depth equipment superior to 6,000 metros.

The ship will have the capacity to accommodate 58 passengers39 of them will be scientists and the rest will be crew.

Cuenta con cerca de 1,000 square meters are reserved for laboratories and places for specialized scientific workoffering greater opportunities, both operational and scientific.

You can do it Operar en todos los océanosincludes the polar regions, is capable of:

  • Operations carried out in zones not exceeding 1,500 m.
  • Uso de sonda bathymetrica multihaz de aguas de alla resolution on capacity de capacity for coalquier fondo Oceanico.
  • Deploy and operate up to two remotely operated underwater vehicles (ROV/AUV) in deep waters.
  • Odón de Buen: un buque sostenible
  • This is an oceanographic ship the world reference for energy puritythis includes diesel and gas-powered electric motors. The ship will maintain the principle of high energy efficiency and emission reduction.

¿Quién fue Odón de Buen?

The oceanographic ship is named after the founder of IEO-CSIC: Odón de Buen y del Cos. Nacido en Zuera (Zaragoza) was a Spanish naturalist who promoted oceanography in Spain in 1863 and is considered one of the pioneers of this science in Europe.

Flota Oceanográfica Española

Spain has one a fleet of oceanographic research vessels It is managed and coordinated by the MICIU under the Oceanographic Vessel Activities Coordinating and Tracking Commission.

Forman parte de esta flota Use IEO and CSIC Sarmiento de Gamboa, Ramón Margalef, Ángeles Alvariño, Francisco de Paula Navarro and Mytilus.

Similarly, Unidad de Tecnología Maritima del CSIC gestiona el equipamiento cientifico del Bouque Hesperidesde la Fuerza de Acción Marítima de la Armada Española.

Además, participant of MICIU oceanographic vessel financing Scientific and Technical Installation of the Balearic Islands Coastal Observation and Forecasting System (ICTS) SOCIB.

It is added to the fleet new ship Exploring Odón de Buen's oceanography.
