Researchers from the University of Auckland, led by Parag Tarwadi and Bruce MacDonald, have developed a compact and economical Remotely Operated Vehicle (ROV) designed for shallow-water marine inspections. This innovative prototype aims to enhance th

In the world of maritime incidents, ship strandings are far from rare, often leading to hefty economic losses and environmental headaches. But what if there was a way to make the refloating process more efficient and cost-effective? That’s precisely

In the vast, churning waters of the Bohai Sea, a quiet revolution is taking place. Not in the form of towering ships or colossal rigs, but in the humble, yet crucial, net systems of bottom-mounted aquaculture farms. A recent study, led by Fuxiang Liu

In a bid to understand the safety implications of liquefied natural gas (LNG) as a fuel for cruise ships, a recent study published in the Journal of Marine Science and Engineering (Zbornik za pomorstvo in transport) has shed light on the unique risks
