US Navy buoy for underwater use

In 2012 Resinex supplied Sound and Sea Technology with four large buoys for underwater use (between 150 and 360 m depth), with a maximum net thrust of 2950 kg.

In early 2012 Resinex supplied to Sound and Sea Technology (SST) of Lynnwood – WA – four big buoys for underwater usage (between 150 and 360 m depth). Maximum net buoyancy 2950 Kg.
The buoys were installed in Summer 2012 in the South Atlantic Ocean. The end user is  the Naval Facilities Engineering Services Center (NFESC) of US Navy  that designed a Surface Ship Radiated Noise Measurement  (SSRNM) array to be installed at the Atlantic Undersea Test and Evaluation Center (AUTEC).
After that, Resinex received from SST a twin order of four buoys also to be deployed from 150 and 360 m depth. Maximum buoyancy 3600 Kg. This time the four buoys are being installed in 2014.
NFESC is the utilizer of this mid-Pacific Surface Ship Radiated Noise Measurement (SSRNM MIDPAC) array off Oahu, Hawaii.
The SSRNM MIDPAC system will be similar to the SSRNM AUTEC system with the hydrophone arrays and electronics being identical. The structures supporting the AUTEC and MIDPAC arrays will be single-point moorings with umbilical cable assemblies connecting the systems to their trunk cables.
