Report of the Marine Technology Foresight Panel Working Group on Exploitation of Non-Living Marine Resources

摘要

As a contribution to the UK Government's Technology Foresight programme, which aims to set priorities for research funding for the future through dialogue between industry, academia and Government, we have examined the non-living marine resources part of the Marine market sector. Under this heading we identify substantial potential for growth in three target market areas: A. offshore information and forecasting services, B. seabed survey in support of engineering of all kinds, military activity and transport, C. exploitation of deep waters beyond the edge of the continental shelf.
