1. INTRODUCTION Judicious utilization of offshore resources is very vital for the economic prosperity of

any country in the world. The control over the oceans is regulated by the Law of the Sea

convention of 1982, which came into force on November 16, 1994 and it defines

oceanic jurisdiction for all countries. This Law extends the legal right to the coastal

countries to exploit; develop; manage and conserve all resources to be found in the

water and in the sub-soil ofan area extending 200 nautical miles from its shore i.e.

Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ). The Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ), about 200

nautical miles from coast, the zone outside the territorial water of the country over

which a country is permitted to do economic activities like fishing and is entitled to

explore and exploit the natural resources of the area.

The detailed map of the EEZ shall be useful in the following purposes:

a) Fishermen for fishing operations using deep trawl or bottom fishing gear

b) Petroleum, natural gas and mineral exploration as well as exploitation

c) Development and assessment of mineral resources

d) Telecommunication industry for lying cables

e) Sub-sea pipe lines for geological hazard assessment

f) Effective disposal of waste and reducing pollutants

g) Ocean engineers for constructing and maintaining structures of port and harbor.

INDIAN EEZ:

India has an Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) with an area of about 23, 05,143 km2 along

its 7516km coastline (including the coastline of Andaman and Nicobar Islands and

Lakshadweep Islands) as shown in figure-1. This constitutes about two-third of the

land area of the country. Realizing the need to be cognizant about the enormous

potentials of our country’s EEZ, the Government of India has decided to prepare a

comprehensive map of entire EEZ of India and National Centre for Polar and Ocean

Research (NCPOR), Goa has been appointed as the nodal agency for the implementation

of this programme.

4. SCOPE OF WORK

The primary objective of the SK-361 cruise was to undertake multibeambathymetry and

Magnetometer survey in north of Bay of Bengal within the EEZ of India and to conduct

CTD/SVP cast at different locations within survey area. Figure. 1 shows the location map

with vessel tracks prepared for the bathymetry data acquisition. Total area covered 16023

km2 and with track line length of 5004 km during SK-361. In this around 3771 km data

took in the B-10 block with area of 11703 km2 and collected 1232 km data along the patch

line of B7 block with an area of 4320km2

Figure 2 Cruise plan of the bathymetry survey

5. METHODOLOGY AND SURVEY EQUIPMENTS

5.1 Methodology : The Multibeam survey was carried out using standard survey practices.Survey lines

were planned parallel to the general bathymetric contour were run in NE-WS trend.

The tracklines were planned in order to obtain about 80-100% overlap at average

speed of 5.5-6.2 knots. Navigational and attitude information is provided by C-NAV

DGPS system. Ship track was maintained within ±30 m.

5.2 Equipment details: 5.2.1 SeaBeam-3012 MultibeamEchosounder System:

SeaBeam-3012 MultibeamEchosounder onboard ORV-SagarKanya was utilised to carry

out the surveys in Andaman region ANI1 block. The SB-3012 is a 12 kHz; 209 beam

sonar system; has a beam width of 2° at nadir and is capable of measuring depths

Page 7: (26 August 2019 to 28 September 2019) Geo-scientific ...npdc.ncaor.gov.in/npdc/cruisdatadownload.jsp...Manufacturer L3-Communications Elac-Nautik GmbH; Germany Number of active Beams

ranging from 200 m to 11000 m. The complete Multibeam system complex comprises

of many sub systems:

a. Surface Sound velocity (SSV): The surface sound velocity profiler is an underway

ocean surface profiling system that collects the water sound speed continuously.

b. Gyro & Motion Sensor:Multibeam system uses IXSEA-Octans sensor for Gyro and

motion input. Octans is an IMO compliant survey grade gyrocompass with an integral

motion sensor.

c. Positioning System: The C-NAV DGPS subsystem is used for positioning accuracy. C-

NavGcGPS corrections are similar to other wide area DGPS system such as the Federal

Aviation Administration’s (FDA) wide area augmentation system (WAAS). The C-Nav

GPS receiver can accept two (2) different GcGPS correction service message formats.

The C-Nav; dual frequency; GPS equipment receives either of these corrections

broadcast from the communications satellite; applies them its own observed refraction

corrected C/A code; dual frequency observations; and performs a navigation solution.

The resulting corrected GPS position; velocity and time (PVT) are output from the C-

Nav equipment to other subsystems on the platform/vehicle/vessel to support the

navigation positioning control requirements.

d. Network Time Server with GPS Synchronized Time Base: LANTIME (local area

network timeserver) provides a high precision time base to a TCP/IP network

(stratum-1-server). The NTP (network time protocol) is used to synchronize all NTP

clients with the reference. LANTIME/GPS is a set of equipment composed of a satellite

controlled clock GPS167; a single board computer with integrated network board and a

power supply; all installed in a metal 19” on the single-board computer flash disk. Four

push buttons and a 2 x 40 character LC display can be used configure and monitor the

time server. After the network connection has been bestialized; the timeserver can also

be configured and monitored remotely from a work station via TEL/NET or FTP.

e. Network Time Protocol (NTP): NTP is a common method for synchronization of

hardware clocks in local and global networks. Timeservers synchronize themselves by

a reference time source; such as a radio controlled clock; GPS-receiver or modem time

distribution. Stratum-1-server distribute their time to several clients in the network

which are called stratum-2. A high precision synchronization is feasible because of the

several time references. Every computer synchronizes itself by up to three valued time

sources. NTP enable the comparison of the hardware times and the adjustment of the

own clock; a time precision of 128 ms, often better than 50 ms is possible.

5.2.2. Conductivity Temperature & Depth (CTD)

As the Sound Velocity Profiler (SVP) depth display was working; for this Sound Velocity

Profiler attached with the CTD cast. The vertical structure of sound velocity was

derived using SVP and CTD Cast. CTD is used to study various parameters like

temperature, conductivity, pressure etc. at various depths. The SBE-911pluswas

utilized to measure conductivity, temperature and pressure in depths up to

3300meters.The sketch diagram of deployment of CTD as shown in figure 3

9. ISSUES AND SUGGESTIONS ü Performance of MBES navigation computer has been interrupted many times

during the survey. It is recommended to upgrade/replace the system. ü Magnetic field values in magnetometer readings was fluctuating during NW-SE

direction and repeated the magnetometer survey on the same line where we got correct data. But the same issue remained. That is the the reading was inconsistent It’s recommended to consult OEM/Service providers to solve this issue.

ü Cable pay-out counter in Deep Sea winch is not working properly. It needs immediate inspection by expertise since it is mandatory for deep sediment sampling operations.
