RALEIGH BAY KRHG RANOS BELLE RANOS BELLE RRS CHALLENGER The RRS Challenger (IMO 7117761) was a 1973-built British oceanographic research vessel operated by the Natural Environment Research Council (NERC) for marine studies, often in the Atlantic and North Sea, until her sale in 2000 and subsequent scrapping in 2004. She is not to be confused with the historic 1872 HMS Challenger expedition. Key Details of RRS Challenger (1973): Built: Launched in 1973 by James Lamont & Co., Port Glasgow. Operation: Used for oceanographic research, including seabed studies, current meter mooring, and biological surveys, particularly around the UK continental shelf and the Porcupine Abyssal Plain. Specs: 1,050 gross tonnage. Final Years: Sold in 2000 and renamed SV Explorer, later scrapped in Grenå in 2004. Cruise Activity: She conducted numerous cruises, such as CH14B/78 and CH8/86, conducting essential marine biology and physics data collection.

In Jan. 2007, the name associated with the code 74AB was changed to OCEAN RESEARCHER. In Feb. 2007 an additional code was created for the OCEAN RESEARCHER. In 2009, the platform group agreed attribute change and code creation procedures. The name for 74AB was changed back to CHARLES DARWIN.

Use 77OP for any data collected by Stena Arctica. Code : 58A1 Name : STENA ARCTICA <http://www.ices.dk/datacentre/requests/Default.aspx?id=8049> Flag : NORWAY - NO (ISO Country Code) Notes : Incorrect information since this vessel was from Sweden. *Additional Information Sources:* *Possibly Same Vessel:* *77OP* - Stena Arctica -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- *General Comments:* Jörgen öberg: SMHI were contacted by the Norwegian Marine Data Centre, a department of the Institute of Marine Research (IMR), regarding a Cruise Summary Report for Stena Arctica in 1989. The ship code for the vessel is given as 58A1 but, as the ship was Swedish, 77A1 would probably be more appropriate. As the CSR will now be revised, we kindly ask to you if such a change is possible.
