The new research vessel METEOR IV is currently under construction and will be used by scientists to conduct research on all the world's oceans by 2026. Experts in marine technology have been involved from the very beginning to ensure that this succeeds. In this podcast episode, Torsten Turla, Managing Director of MacArtney Germany from Kiel, talks about the role he and his company are playing in the construction of the METEOR IV and which other ships they are supplying with marine technology.

Lots of ships in action for marine research - that's the idea behind the SOOP innovation platform, which is the subject of this podcast episode:
Private sailing ships, cargo ships, cruise ships, ferries or cutters - every ship can collect the scientific data that is so urgently needed for marine research wherever it is travelling.

SOOP - Shaping an Ocean of Possibilities - is a new innovation platform that aims to bring everyone together:
Industry, which is developing the necessary easy-to-use marine technology,
society, which plays its part in collecting data and
science, which works with this data.

SOOP is being funded by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research from 2023 to 2025 as part of the Helmholtz funding line "Innovation platforms as sustainable and structure-building measures to strengthen transfer and innovation".

This innovation platform is coordinated by Toste Tanhua, chemist and oceanographer at the GEOMAR Helmholtz Centre for Ocean Research Kiel, who explains in detail in this podcast episode how SOOP will work and how you can already support it now.

This podcast episode is about the future of maritime mobility, how digitalisation will change our ports, what opportunities a parking aid for XXL ships has and where an autonomous dredger can be used.

Bärbel Fening is in conversation with Prof. Dr. Axel Hahn and Dr. Sebastian Feuerstack from the DLR Institute Systems Engineering for Future Mobility in Oldenburg.

In Canada - the country with the longest coastline worldwide - ocean technology is a crucial technology. In this podcast episode, Leann Collins, Director, Projects and Stakeholder Relations at the Association of British Columbia Marine Industries and Enrico Nake, Trade Officer at the Canadian Embassy in Berlin, talk about the strength of the ocean technology companies at the west coast, about their challenges and about unique inventions.

In Canada - the country with the longest coastline worldwide - Ocean Technology is a crucial technology. In this podcast episode, Chris Bourque, executive director of the Ocean Technology Council of Nova Scotia and Enrico Nake, Trade Officer at the Canadian Embassy in Berlin, emphasise the strength of the Canadian companies in this sector and point to the H2O Conference, which is Canada's premier ocean technology event in Halifax in June.

This podcast episode is about cutting-edge marine technology in extreme use. It's in action at one of the longest and toughest professional sailing events in the world, the OCEAN RACE, which is not only a sporting event but also a race that is really about the state of the oceans. All five teams have cutting-edge marine technology on board to collect data along the way while raising awareness about the importance of this other Ocean Race.

For this podcast episode, I spoke with Stefan Raimund, the scientific lead of the Ocean Race.

In this podcast episode, I talk to Dr. Alexandre Orth, Head of Subsea Automation Systems at Bosch Rexroth and with Gottfried Hendrix, Manager of Technical Systems and Solutions, Technical Architect for Subsea Automation Systems, also at Bosch Rexroth. Together with a team, the two have developed the world's smallest electric subsea actuator, which can replace the conventional hydraulic cylinder without taking up additional space.

Marispace X is a cloud where maritime data will be collected in the future. This data is important for all projects in the sea, on the seabed, on the water. Why it makes sense to collect all this maritime data in one place in the future, and what advantages it will bring, is something I talked about with Jann Wendt, the managing director of the company North.io GmbH from Kiel, who initiated the whole project. But he is not doing it alone, in the meantime there is a project consortium developing Marispace X, the project is being funded by the federal government with 10 million euros.
