A research vessel is a ship or boat that has been modified or outfitted with the purpose of conducting research at sea. Many functions are performed by research vessels. Several of these responsibilities can be integrated into a single vessel, while others call for a separate vessel.
Providing sturdy platforms from which explorers can launch tools, divers, and submersibles, research vessels are highly developed mobile research stations. Modern electronics, computers, navigational equipment, and communications systems are also aboard these ships.
Bigger goods can fill one or more containers, giving shippers an unrivalled variety of bulk alternatives. In fact, because they are built to transport vast quantities of goods or raw materials, vessels are the best way to convey a lot of cargo.
The Global Research vessel market accounted for $XX Billion in 2022 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2023 to 2030.
Kolkata serves as the debut port for the Indian Navy’s new, sizable survey vessel, Sandhayak. On Sunday, the first of the four sizable survey vessels, “Sandhayak,” was launched by the Indian Navy in Kolkata. While the Chief Guest was there, the ship was launched.
A full-scale coastal and deep-water hydrographic survey of ports and harbours, as well as the identification of navigational channels and routes, would be the main responsibilities of these survey ships.Additionally, the ships would be used to gather oceanographic and geophysical data for both civil and military applications.
In addition to functioning as hospital ships with minimal amenities during emergencies, these ships would also be capable of undertaking responsibilities like Search and Rescue and Disaster Relief.
The ships will be equipped with a retractable hangar where a utility helicopter can be stored. The ships will replace the current Sandhayak-class survey ships, according to the Navy, and are outfitted with brand-new hydrographic technology to gather oceanographic and geophysical data.The ships are 235 people strong and 110 metres long by 16 metres broad with a deep displacement of 3,300 tonnes.
Two main engines in twin shaft configuration power the ship’s propulsion system, which is intended to travel at a maximum speed of 18 knots and a cruise speed of 14 knots. The first ship of the formerly-existing Sandhayak-class survey ships is where the ship gets its name.
