EddyNet: A Measurement Program for Collecting Real-Time Current Profiles from the Gulf of Mexico.Steven P. AndersonStatus: Accepted
Co-Authors: This paper describes the development and implementation of a communications
network that provides real-time access to ocean current profile measurements
being collected from drilling rigs, oceanographic survey vessels, and
production facilities located in the Gulf of Mexico. The Eddy Joint Industry
Program developed the program, named EddyNet. This real-time network of
observations improves the ability to provide analysis of ocean currents
in the Gulf of Mexico in support of the operational needs of the deepwater
exploration and production community. In addition, EddyNet provides a
centralized, joint-industry, oceanographic database that can be used to
develop environmental design criteria. Submitted on October 15, 2002 |
