Sub-Merge

It was a pleasure speaking with Meg from Blue Marble Geographics and sharing our experiences and takeaways from a great Sub-Merge expedition in Fiji. Thanks to our great partners Map the Gaps, Cookson Adventures and Pacific Blue Foundation for making this possible! My greatest appreciation is for the community and tribal leaders of Waisomo who have been the guardians of the Bega lagoon for generations.

#TechTuesday ~ Marine Technician Tomer Ketter recently shared this image, created from multibeam echosounder data. It shows a true 3D rendering of the seafloor bathymetry — darker tones represent finer, softer sediment, and lighter tones depict harder or larger grain-sized sediment. Ketter explains that the multibeam echosounder uses acoustic energy, such as soundwaves, to measure the distance and angle to hundreds of points on the seafloor simultaneously while also capturing the intensity of the returning signal. Hydrographers on board the ship then use software to process the data and visualize it to make it intuitive to understand the seafloor.

🌊🚢 Reflecting on Our Submersible Rescue Training 🚢🌊 Last year, we conducted a comprehensive submersible rescue training exercise in the Pacific Ocean using a survey class ROV for an ongoing submersible project in the region. This training was performed aboard a unique super yacht for one of our clients. Our team showcased advanced rescue techniques and operational excellence while emphasizing the training of the yacht's crew to assist with operations and highlighting the critical importance of seamless communication for real-time scenarios. This method of rescue and recovery of the sub to the surface using an ROV serves as a last resort solution in case all built-in rescue solutions of the submersible fail. At Sub-Merge, we are committed to safety and maintaining the highest levels of operational excellence. Through fostering strong teamwork and communication, we enhance safety protocols and response times during actual missions. Interested in having us conduct this vital ROV rescue training for your team? Reach out to us to learn more about enhancing your underwater safety protocols. 📞📧 #SubMerge #ROV #SubmersibleRescue

Wishing you all a joyous holiday season from all of us here at Sub-Merge! ⛄️ We would like to express our gratitude to our clients, partners and especially our team, who have had some incredible achievements this year. We look forward to 2024!

Recently, we had the honor of being featured on the Megayacht News podcast, delving into the fascinating world of personal submersibles. In conversation with Diane M. Byrne, Ofer Ketter, Patrick Lahey, and Charles Kohnen shared insights on personal submersibles within the realm of super and mega yachts. From safety measures to riveting tales, they covered it all. Catch a glimpse below, and dive into the entire podcast through the link in the comments! #submersibles #superyachts #megayachts #podcast

Last week, we had the incredible opportunity to participate in The International WorkBoat Show in New Orleans! Our president, Ofer Ketter, took center stage as a keynote speaker, sharing insights and expertise in three thought-provoking talks. He discussed the four major sectors where submersibles are being used - private yachts, expedition travel companies, tourism, and for conservation. “Manned deep ocean exploration is stronger than ever,” Ketter said. “The interest has always been there and we’re exploring what audiences of all types are wanting to support.” __________ Thank you to everyone who visited our booth and attended Ofer's talks. We look forward to continuing our journey in pushing the boundaries of submarine technology and underwater exploration. Stay tuned for more exciting updates from Sub-Merge! 🚢 #SubmarineIndustry #UnderwaterExploration #WorkboatShow #SubMergeAdventures

We are deeply saddened by the passing of retired Navy Capt. Don Walsh, a distinguished deep-sea submarine officer, oceanographer, and revered explorer. Don Walsh left an indelible mark on the world of ocean exploration. Captain Walsh was a pioneer in deep-sea exploration, notably recognized for being one of the first to dive to the deepest point on Earth's ocean floor. His explorations and discoveries not only expanded our understanding of the ocean but also paved the way for future generations of oceanographers and scientists. Captain Don Walsh's legacy lives on through his impactful work and the inspiration he provided to those who share a passion for the mysteries of the deep sea. As we reflect on his remarkable life, let us honor and remember the man whose courage and dedication opened new frontiers in the exploration of the world's oceans. #DonWalsh #RIP
