The Vega field as a laboratory of biodiversity
In detail, the Biovega project continued with the second operating phase, thanks to the technology, location of the devices and the players who will support Edison in the activities. The installation of the tecnoreefs (which exceed and improve the original project which envisaged the use of reefballs), expected in 2016, will by contrast be postponed, while additional feasibility studies will be carried out in line with that accomplished in 2015.
The bio-monitoring activities on the waters adjacent to the off-shore field of Rospo Mare using the “Mosselmonitor” system also continued in 2015 and a further monitoring project was launched on the state of biodiversity referring to the submarine species with the support of a Biologist and the Institute for Animal Health in Termoli (CB).
