Features of the Oruç Reis Ship Exploring in the Mediterranean

The Fatih drilling ship, which was on duty in the Black Sea last week, found a natural gas reserve of 320 billion cubic meters. As the time required to explore natural gas decreases as the years progress, these two drilling ships on behalf of our country, black sea And Mediterrenian conducts reserve research offshore. He worked in the Mediterranean section of these researches. Oruç Reis It belongs to the research ship.

serving in the Mediterranean Oruç Reis We have brought together the technical features of the geological exploration ship for you and explained them in an understandable way.

Basic information about Oruç Reis Ship:

• Length: 87 m
• Width: 23m
• Draft: 6m
• Average Speed: 17 knots per hour (31 km/h)
• Gross Tonnage: 4575 gross tons
• 2D Seismic System: 12 km diameter
• 3D Seismic System: 4×4 km diameter

Oruç Reis The geophysical research ship has geophysical (2D/3D deep seismic, gravity, magnetic) systems along with modern propulsion and maneuvering systems. Remotely operated underwater vehicle (ROV) systems for mapping the seabed in detail are also available. Equipped with equipment to perform geological sampling from the water column and seabed Oruç Reis There are also various laboratories on the ship to process the data received.

These laboratories include geology, geophysics, hydrography, oceanography and biology research laboratories for analysis and evaluation. The ship also has equipment that complies with international standards. There is a helipad and thus it is possible to reach the ship by air.

History of the Oruç Reis Research Ship:

• Year ordered: April 24, 2012
• Built by: Istanbul Maritime Shipyard
• Date of landing: March 28, 2015
• Active dates: 2018-Present
• Class and type: Geophysical Reconnaissance Ship
• Owner: General Directorate of Mineral Research and Exploration (MTA)

MTA Oruç Reis ship was built under the supervision of the General Directorate of Mineral Research and Exploration. Its name is clearly Ottoman sailor Oruç ReisHe gets it from . He was first assigned to an oil and hydrocarbon exploration mission in the Mediterranean in April 2017. SEFT Gemi İnşaat was involved in the design of the ship, and Istanbul Maritime Shipyard took place.

The Oruç Reis ship had previously carried out research activities in the Black and Marmara seas. The ship is currently actively sailing to the Eastern Mediterranean from Antalya Port and has started seismic research activities.

Other features of the Oruç Reis ship:

• It can perform 2D and 3D gravity, magnetic and seismic research.
• It can perform 3D seismic operations up to a depth of 8 km.
• It can perform 2D seismic operations up to 15 km depth.
• It has a capacity of 55 personnel. (24 crew members, 31 administrators and researchers)
