Study of the edge of Spanish Platform on the Canary Islands Basin.
In this cruise the mooring lines deployed in April 2012 have been recovered. In addition communication between acoustic receivers and a deck unit has been tested. This is part of the international program OTN ("Ocean Tracking Network," in Spanish "Red de Seguimiento Oceánico"). This work is preparatory for the deployment of a curtain listening across the Strait of Gibraltar.
They focus on the seabed research of Mediterranean sea (Spain ), both indirect and direct. Carry out a survey of the fishing beaches to later elaborate fishing charts. Systematic bathymetric survey of the study areas with 100% coating (Multi-beam echo sounder EM-300). seismic profiles according to the ship's defeat (Topas 710 system). Performance of sound velocity profiles in the water column. Side sweep sonar in selected areas. Sediment sampling (Shipeck dredges - Box corer). Sampling of Rocky Outcrops (Rock Dredge).

Swath bathymetry and seismic studies using the following echosounders: EM710, TOPAS, EK60, EA600 and seismic Sparker. Also gravity cores and box core were used.
The objective of the NUREIEVA-3D campaign is the acquisition of a high-resolution 3D seismic cube of the submarine extension of the Portmán Bay mining spill deposit, in the vicinity of Cartagena, Murcia province, in order to establish the geometry and three-dimensional internal structure of said reservoir. To carry out the campaign, it will be necessary to install, test and deploy from the ship a complete 3D seismic system that will be provided by the subcontracted company GeoSurveys
