Experimental research and modeling of the underwater sound in marine environment

The paper presents a modeling of the acoustic field emitted by a rig tender located offshore exploration in the Black Sea. Are presented measuring system, experimental context, the types of noise that participate in the overall noise budget and the conditions in which measurements were made, also are mentioned and the project established through were measured the parameters and were defined devices which these measurements were made. Measurement system used is adaptable, allowing dynamic measurements and operative analysis of the acquired data. Measurement methodology was determined by an acoustic project, which was set to be purchased both: sizes and ways of interpreting them. Modeling acoustic field shows that the maximum acoustic impact area, below 120 dB re 1 mu Pa criterion (proposed and accepted by Marine Directive) was extended to 3-5Km distance around the ship. It is expected to produce adverse effects on the marine habitat and on the underwater life.
