The French research vessel 'Abeille Marengo' has arrived in Heraklion, Crete, to conduct underwater surveys for the installation of submarine power cables as part of the Crete-Cyprus interconnection project (Great Sea Interconnector). The vessel, operated by Nexans, will map the seafloor and record its geological and morphological characteristics to select the safest route for the cable's laying. The surveys will use specialized systems such as multi-beam echo sounder, side-scan sonar, magnetometer, and underwater video systems. The project aims to connect the electrical systems of Greece and Cyprus, with Crete playing a central role.
