About OceanTherm
OceanTherm is a pioneering brand that specializes in developing bubble curtain solutions to reduce the heat content of the upper ocean, thereby mitigating the impact of hurricanes and tropical storms. The effectiveness of their innovative technology has been successfully tested in Norwegian fjords. Imagine a scenario where a tropical storm is approaching, threatening to become a devastating hurricane.
In the past, such storms would have gained strength by absorbing the warm waters of the Gulf of Mexico. However, thanks to OceanTherm's fleet of strategically deployed ships armed with giant perforated pipes, the storm encounters a powerful hurricane preventative: bubbles. As a result, the storm weakens, potentially preventing extensive damage and saving lives.
Driven by the haunting memories of Hurricane Katrina's devastation, OceanTherm's founder and CEO, Olav Hollingsaeter, along with his dedicated team, are committed to developing a system to cool oceanic regions and weaken or prevent hurricanes. Their mission is to leverage Norwegian expertise and make a global impact, ultimately helping the most vulnerable communities affected by these destructive weather events. OceanTherm's approach involves reducing temperatures in the upper layer of the ocean by utilizing colder water from deeper depths.
With their headquarters in Norway, the brand benefits from the nation's rich history of ocean technology research and development. Through collaboration with Norwegian and international research environments, OceanTherm strives to push the boundaries of what is achievable with their bubble curtain technology. With a commitment to making a difference, OceanTherm is dedicated to testing their hypothesis on a larger scale to provide tangible solutions for tropical cyclone mitigation.
By cooling the surface water and depriving hurricanes of their energy source, OceanTherm aims to prevent these storms from reaching their full potential, ultimately safeguarding lives and minimizing damage. OceanTherm's vision is rooted in their belief that this is a global problem, with the most vulnerable populations bearing the heaviest burdens. Their determination and expertise position them as leaders in this essential field, as they work tirelessly to protect communities worldwide from the devastating impact of hurricanes and tropical storms
