Tanjung Bemban is one of the seas found in the Nongsa sub-district, Batam city which is currently developed as a tourist attraction. This research aims to find out the hydro-oceanographic component, which consists of tide and the current and wave pattern in the sea of Tanjung Bemban Nongsa. To collect the data regarding tide, Tide Pole method, using measuring sign, is used, To collect data of sea current, Float Tracking (Lagrangian) method, by measuring distance and displacement of floating objects in the sea, is utilized,  To collect the data of the wave, Wave Pole method, by measuring wave height, is employed. Based on the result of the research, it is clear that the tide of the sea is categorized as the semi diurnal, since there are two tides in one day with identical height, which occur sequentially and regularly. The highest flow reaches 260 cm and the lowest ebb 19 cm in the 4 days of observation, with 15 minutes interval. The measuring of ocean current is carried out for every 30-second intervals. Current velocity in Nongsa sea ranges from 0.02 m/s to 0.26 m/s. The current moves from east to southwest and west, even though some move northwest and north. Wave height is quite low, between 18 cm and 23 cm. Hydro-oceanographically, the Tanjung Bemban Nongsa area can be developed into a strategic tourism area

Summary The cost of offshore drilling operations can be significantly reduced by discharging drilling cuttings into the seabed. However, this leads to accumulation of cuttings piles on the seabed near the drilling site. A certain thickness of cuttings piles changes the original trend of the seabed terrain undulation condition, thus bringing potential safety hazards to the underwater installation of production manifolds. Moreover, the interaction between cuttings and ocean currents near the cuttings piles causes the geometric shape of cuttings piles to evolve over time, which makes it more difficult to accurately predict their characteristics. On the basis of the force analysis of cuttings, considering the effects of cuttings properties (cutting size, density) and ocean-current velocity on the geometric characteristic evolution of the formed cuttings piles, a continuous model for describing the evolution of the returned cuttings piles is established in this study. This model can quantitatively characterize the functional relationship between characteristics of cuttings piles and relevant parameters (current velocity, cutting size, evolution time), and predict the location and geometry characteristics of the cuttings piles evolving into a stable state in ocean currents. Comparing the measured data in laboratory experiments and at an offshore drilling field, the relative error of the model amounts to less than 10%, which demonstrates its rationality. Simulation results show that there will be significant changes in the geometry of cuttings piles before and after the evolution, in which the intensity is correlated with current velocity and cuttings size, and cuttings piles might even split into several parts under certain conditions. The simulation and analysis of the transport and deposition of cuttings returned from the wellhead on the seabed is highly significant for the guide and optimal design of underwater production manifolds.

Alur pelayaran di Pelabuhan Pulau Baai Bengkulu selalu mengalami pendangkalan. Untuk mengetahui penyebab pendangkalan tersebut maka akan diberikan beberapa informasi hasil kajian geofisika kelautan dari beberapa metoda. Metoda tersebut terdiri dari pengukuran kedalaman laut, pengukuran arus dan pasang surut. Hasil pengukuran kedalaman laut memperlihatkan bahwa kedalaman yang paling dalam di bagian kolam pelabuhan adalah sekitar 12 meter dan yang terdalam di daerah alur juga 12 meter. Pengukuran arus laut memperlihatkan bahwa kecepatan arus pada saat pasang tertinggi lebih tinggi daripada kecepatan arus pada saat surut terendah. Pengendapan lebih besar terjadi pada saat air pasang, apalagi ditambah dengan adanya arus sepanjang pantai yang membawa sedimen ke arah alur. Tipe pasang surut laut di pelabuhan ini adalah tipe campuran ganda, artinya pasang dan surut akan terjadi sekali atau dua kali dalam sehari. Adapun perbedaan tinggi muka air pada saat air pasang dan saat air surut adalah 1,53 meter. Shoaling always occurs in the sailing channel of Pulau Baai Bengkulu Harbour. To know the reason of the shoaling, some information based on the result, of the analysis of several methods of marine geophysical survey are therefore presented. The methods are echo-sounding, sea current and tide measurement. Result of sounding shows that the deepest depth in the lagoon area is around 12 metres and the depth in the channel area is also 12 metres. Result of sea current measurement shows that current velocity during the spring tide is higher than the velocity during the neap tide. Sedimentation is higher in the spring tide, moreover it is increased by the existence of long shore current which transport the sediments into the channel. The type of the sea tide in the harbour is a mixed semi diurnal type which means that the spring and the neap will occur once or twice a day. The height of sea water level difference between spring tide and neap tide season is 1.53 metres.

Abstract: Exploiting renewable energy from the sea is a topic of great interest in recent years in Vietnam. Many coastal areas of our country have been surveyed to assess the potential of marine energy exploitation. However, there have been no studies detailing the potential of exploiting the sea current energy in the Mekong River mouth. This study aims to estimate the potential of marine power generation for the Mekong River mouth by calculating the ocean current flow using the Regional Ocean Modeling System (ROMS). It is estimated following one of the marine electricity generation equipment is being studied in Vietnam.The results show that the potential for power exploitation in the Mekong River mouth is positive, with total capacity reaching over 209 MWh at the river mouth, above 116 MWh in Con Dao in January and above 55 MWh in both locations in July in 2018.

Bantan Coast in Bengkalis Island that suffered worst abrasion due to wave attack. Protection of abrasion area against the wave can be done by proper lay-out of breakwater with certain configuration. To get the optimal configuration of breakwater, wave pattern around the breakwater were analyzed quantitatively. It was conducted to obtain the optimum condition of wave height reduction produced. Evaluation of breakwater lay-out effect to wave pattern can be done by numerical model approached. Wave pattern simulation that occurred due to the breakwater was done by Surface water Modelling System (SMS) - CGWAVE software module. This module is a 2-D depth average numerical model using finite element model. To get accurate simulation, a deviation of the numerical result and the measurement result at several locations was used as the indicator parameter in the calibration process. The results showed that from the result of calibration process was used 1.3 meters wave height and 5.4 seconds wave period. Three breakwaters 20 meters slit configuration produced a maximum value of wave height reduction and wave velocity reduction (in comparison wave simulation without breakwater). This configuration produces 60% height reduction and 14% velocity reduction.

Previous studies investigated the Indian Ocean's currents' impacts on the trajectory movement of MH370 debris. This chapter introduces the novel approach of investigating the wave pattern variations in the Indian Ocean on the MH370 debris. The novel approach based on the altimeter interferometry technique is utilized in this chapter. To this end, dual SIRAL instruments on-board of CryoSat-2 are applied to obtain the annual cycle of significant wave height across the Indian Ocean. In this chapter, in a one-year significant wave height cycle, the swell remains propagating from the Southwest to the Northeast from January to March 2015 with a maximum significant wave height of 5 m in the Northeast Offshore Australian Shelf and 7 m significant wave height Southwest of Australian Shelf. In this circumstance, the Pareto algorithm proves that the flaperon would submerge to a water depth less than 300 m on account of the impact of wave power of 22000 KJ/m/wave. It can be said that the flaperon would be submerged further to a water depth of 1000 m because of the wave power of 30000 KJ/m/wave.

AbstractWe developed a statistical ocean current model based on data collected from the Gulf Stream along the Florida Straits. Due to the random nature of ocean current velocity, the model was described by a Gaussian probability density function. Like wind speed distribution, the power spectral density (PSD) of ocean current velocity is distributed over a wide range of frequencies but characterized by distinguishable peaks resulting from tidal currents. Accordingly, the total velocity was considered as a sum of the mean velocity and a random component. To account for the tidal effect, a tidal current component was added based on PSD values. In addition, the model was formulated as a function of normalized depth that could be used at any site for resource characterization. For validation, the proposed model was used to predict mean velocity and standard deviation at four different sites along the Gulf Stream. Predicted values were then compared with measured data at those four locations, and a good correlation was observed.
