subsea
"Subsea" refers to activities and technologies that occur beneath the surface of the ocean. This includes the exploration and extraction of natural resources like oil and gas, as well as the installation of underwater infrastructure such as pipelines and cables. Subsea operations often require specialized equipment and vehicles, like remotely operated vehicles (ROVs), to navigate the challenging underwater environment.
The subsea industry plays a crucial role in global energy production and environmental monitoring. It involves collaboration among various sectors, including engineering, marine biology, and environmental science. Companies in this field work to ensure that subsea operations are safe, efficient, and environmentally responsible, often adhering to regulations set by organizations like the International Maritime Organization (IMO).
