The project's main objective is to establish the feasibility of a new service and an associated system aimed to estimate the noise radiated into the water by the equipment and systems deployed on the ground during deep offshore sea floor operations. Based on this estimation, the main purpose of the project will be to assess the acoustic environmental impact on marine fauna. It will also make it possible to assess the acoustic disturbance generated by the devices or systems deployed on the ground on the operation of the sub-robots monitoring and implement adaptive strategies to prevent malfunctions of the latter. The project involves technological developments and system validation through deep sea experiments.
