Among the tender requirements are the preparation of an archaeological heritage impact assessment report and a potential impact assessment project, both onshore and offshore.

“In addition to the usual archaeological research carried out in land sections for the purpose of environmental licensing, subsea archaeological research will also be conducted for the SEAP project,” Petrobras told Upstream.

The studies, according to Petrobras, will be based on hydro graphic data with the use of autonomous underwater vehicles capable of operating in water depths of up to 3000 metres.

“In case there is the need to recover any artefact on the seabed, remotely operated vehicles must be used and, for this purpose, specific vessels adapted for launching ROVs will be utilised,” Petrobras added.

CreaMare – Open Call for Creative Professionals

The CREAMARE project will involve marine archaeologists, ocean scientists, and creative industry experts, such as graphic designers, 3D artists, level designers, and sound designers. Together, they will co-produce a Serious Game focused on Underwater Cultural Heritage and Ocean Literacy.

About the Serious Game
This game will allow players to explore highly realistic 3D digital models of eight underwater cultural sites. Players will visit these sites to solve riddles and face challenges related to cultural heritage and environmental threats, such as oil spills from shipwrecks and ghost nets damaging marine life.

The game story takes place in a dystopian future, where scientists, while attempting to combat marine pollution, inadvertently created a mutated creature that now threatens the deep sea and its hidden treasures. To protect UCH, players must fight the source of pollution by resolving some ecological issues and bringing back historical artifacts to their belonging sites. Selected candidates will receive the detailed storyboard after signing a cooperation agreement.

To whom this call is addressed
This call is aimed to select six creative professionals, which are:

• 3D artists – 2 persons

Professor in Preservation of Underwater Cultural Heritage The use of natural sciences to study and enable the preservation of archaeological materials deposited underwater has a long tradition in Denmark. The National Museum of Denmark has been a pioneering institution since the 1960s in both the development of underwater archaeological techniques and conservation of underwater finds. Through research into archaeological materials deposited underwater, it has been possible to identify the various cultural and natural (physical, chemical and biological) threats to this heritage in order to document their effects and where possible develop sustainable strategies to preserve these sites. Furthermore, in a rapidly changing ocean environment and increasing human exploitation of the marine environment, it is necessary to develop new concepts for assessing and preserving this resource. It is with this background that the National Museum wishes to create a permanent professorship in the preservation of underwater cultural heritage, in order to strengthen and further develop research in this area and to highlight and preserve Denmark´s rich underwater cultural heritage.

Job description
