Design and Build Specification 12 m Research Vessel
In 2008, BIM launched its inshore survey vessel MV T. Burke which has been offering survey services to various stakeholders in aquaculture and inshore fisheries all around the coast of Ireland. The main task of the vessel is to identify seed mussel beds around the coast of Ireland using various sampling equipment and sonar systems but it has been involved in inshore diving operations, sites prospections, underwater videos surveys, various shellfish stock assessment as well as support vessel for various events.
The demand for all those tasks has increased over the past few years and our current vessel has proven to be too small and too slow to answer such a demand. Currently, the vessel is spending between 70 and 85 days working including transfer from 1 part of the coast to another. In order to continue and improve such services, it was decided to look for an upgrade.
