Fugro has secured a major contract from ISPRA to deliver Italy’s offshore wave and current measurement network, enhancing both subsea monitoring for marine ecosystems and offshore renewables.

The two-year project, part of ISPRA’s Marine Ecosystem Restoration (MER) initiative, will establish 11 SEAWATCH Wavescan buoys across Italian waters and two seabed tsunami early-warning stations.

These installations will collect and transmit real-time Geo-data, supporting climate change adaptation and sustainable marine development.
