Marine Research
Research at sea is an expensive endeavor. EcoOcean has been supporting marine research in Israel for more than 18 years. We accomplish this by providing the services at affordable rates of the Mediterranean Explorer research vessel (hereafter: the Medex). The Medex, one of only two research vessels in Israel, serves the Israeli marine research community in advancing exploration and broadening knowledge of the Israeli Mediterranean Sea.
Hundreds of research activities conducted on board of the MedEx have revolutionized marine research in Israel and positioned it as an influential force in the global arena.
At EcoOcean, we use state-of -the-art equipment and advanced sampling methods designed to protect the marine environment. The MedEx features an onboard laboratory, a remotely operated vehicle (ROV), a crane, specialized research instruments, and cutting-edge collection and sampling systems. The MedEx supports everything from a single-day research trips to multi-week deep-sea expeditions. It is truly the perfect platform for marine research.
