Buoy Installation for
Nature Conservation on Ancient Lycian Coasts
Project Overview
The
Lycian Coast Buoy Installation Project aims to establish a buoy system for
diving boats so as to avoid harmful anchoring to sea bottom where biological
diversity is outstandingly rich. Our customer WWF Turkey leads numerous nature
conservation projects in Turkey.
Technical
Background
Within the scope of this project, DERINSU has installed the buoys by anchoring
them on sea bottom by means of a pneumatic driving system, which is designed
and produced by DERINSU engineering team. Below pictures taken during
implementation of the project.
