1802801041318028010413Ocean buoy is a type of buoy floating on the water surface, which is an unmanned, highly automated, and remote sensing equipment for marine meteorological and hydrological observation. Marine buoys can collect the necessary marine hydrological and meteorological data for marine scientific research, offshore oil development, port construction, and construction in a long-term and continuous manner according to regulatory requirements.
How are ocean buoys arranged
There are two ways to place ocean buoys: fixed point placement and floating use with the ship.
1. Fixed point layout.
Fixed at the bottom of the water by anchor chains. The anchor system adopts a composite anchor system, and the anchor chain that fixes the iron anchor is not directly connected to the wave buoy, but is connected to the anchor chain through a buoyancy buoy. The buoyancy buoy is connected to the wave buoy through a torque free steel wire rope. This connection method can maximize the elimination of the effect of ocean currents on wave measuring buoys, making their measurement of wave direction more accurate.
2. Float on board for use.
The wave measuring buoy is connected to the measuring vessel through a neutral cable and floats along with the vessel for measurement.
The above is an introduction to the layout of ocean buoys, hoping to help everyone.
