Retrieval of the Masfjorden Sediment Trap

Tuesday 5th November 2015 

The Masfjorden sediment trap was initially located using the echo-sounder and a ROV from ROVas was deployed to help retrieve the sediment trap.

The sediment trap floats were visible in the echo-sounder.

Leon made a hook and line for the ROV to secure the sediment trap.  The ROV would attached it using the manipulator arm.  Once attached the sediment trap could be lifted using Solvik´s winch.

Discussing the retrieval plan 

The sediment trap was successfully retrieved and was ready to be serviced for redeployment.
