OceanX

We’re creating a digital twin of Cabo Verde's deep sea in partnership with @IMar_CV.

This detailed 3D model will train AI to predict ocean floor activity and also equip Cabo Verde’s scientists and policymakers with a powerful tool for informed, sustainable decision-making.

Don’t miss tomorrow’s Seamount Deep Dive Webinar!

Explore new science from our #AroundAfricaExpedition with @oqfoundation — including a newly mapped seamount and first-ever visuals of Walters Shoal.

It’s that time again when the OceanXplorer is in dry dock. In the Netherlands, OceanXplorer will be on land this month for routine maintenance, repairs, and inspections.

Soon we’ll be back out at sea and heading towards UNOC, the UN Ocean Conference, held in Nice, France.

During our Around Africa Expedition w/ @oqfoundation we created the first ever map of this large seamount on the Madagascar Ridge. Our mapping and ROV dives provided invaluable data about this unique habitat, which can inform policy makers on how to better protect this ecosystem.
