Surface Mooring Deployed

By: Darlene Trewcrist  |  June 10, 2024

IRMINGER: The OOI-CGSN team arrived at the OOI Irminger Sea Array ahead of a storm and were able to get the large Surface Mooring deployed. Although conditions were overcast and drizzly, the winds and seas were relatively calm. The wind turbines on the buoy began to spin immediately. The wind turbines and solar panels will generate the power the mooring needs for its year-long deployment.
