What is ERVO?
ERVO meetings address common issues/questions that affect research vessel operators for
the purpose of identifying solutions for improving services to the scientific community and developing best practice in the operation of Research Vessels. Members present their National Reports on activities, including any future acquisitions/upgrades.
The ERVO Meetings provide an opportunity for RV Managers to exchange information on their
national fleets, highlighting trends in the requirements for sea-going vessels and new
technological developments for R.V. operations.
Presentations on new vessel builds are invited and a number of special topics is discussed at each meeting
