later. Another possible direction is to look at cooperation between multiple vehicles. In this scenario, one vehicle ‘wastes’ energy by scouting ahead and relays information so the other vehicle(s) can take the most efficient path – working as a unit, this could mean a low shared energy cost by intelligently assigning goals and sharing information. But one of the hard parts about robotics research is getting this entire system to work together. It is often just as hard as building the initial algorithm in the first place.” Progressing AI in the Ocean Environment Over
DNV GL’s Synergi Water with four Core Modules
in Synergi Water will indicate which valves to open and close to minimize discolouration during pipeline flushing, and also minimize the amount of water used for flushing. According to widely available research, using these tools can reduce the amount of water for flushing by over 40%. Minimizing energy costs with Synergi Water Another module now included in the basic package, Pump Scheduling, helps minimize energy cost as it performs an analysis of which pumps should operate and for how long for maximum savings according to fluctuating power rates. “This addition of four modules to Synergi

Global Maritime to Support EU Wave Energy Project
Global Maritime Consultancy & Engineering, a provider of marine warranty, dynamic positioning and engineering services to the offshore sector, is to provide mooring and risk management support to the European Union’s OPERA (Open Sea Operating Experience to Reduce Wave Energy Cost) project. Global Maritime is part of a 12-member consortium led by TECNALIA (the first privately funded applied research and technological development center in Spain) for the three and a half year program with the objective being to progress offshore wave energy development, reduce costs, and ‘de-risk
