Description of Repeating cruise requirements: |
|
Justification/Explanation for ship choice, dates,
conflicts, number of days & multi-ship operations: |
This project could use an Ocean class vessel. Thompson is requested because we expect an OOI Cabled Array cruise has been requested to the area of operations in our time window with Thompson and ROV Jason. The chief scientist is Deborah S. Kelley. |

|
Explain Major Ancillary Facilities
Requirements and list description
and provider for "other" systems. |
We request Jason because it is expected to be available on a collaborative basis. A smaller ROV with 1000 m tether should be adequate for the required operations. |
