Overview

Overview

The Thalassa is a fisheries research vessel that is owned and operated by French Oceanographic Fleet Management. It is equipped with 4 laboratories, a scientific room and multiple docks, making it ideal for carrying out a large variety of scientific survey operations in both offshore and deep-sea locations. The Thalassa also has the capability to accommodate a number of remotely operated vehicles. Typical research voyages can last up to 11 days, and are normally carried out in the North Atlantic Ocean and in parts of the Mediterranean Sea.
