Published purpose

The Port of Belledune is embarking upon an ambitious transition to a green energy hub. As part of this initiative, they have committed to improving their environmental monitoring capabilities (Green Marine Certification) with a specific focus on underwater noise monitoring and linking to vessel traffic and marine life. SeafarerAI has successfully received funding support from the Digital Supercluster Horizon AI initiative to assist the Port with developing an underwater noise monitoring system that SeafarerAI can then commercialize with the purpose of selling to other Ports globally. Underwater noise has been identified as extremely harmful to marine life by the International Maritime Organization (IMO) and regulations are planned for 2026.
