The offshore petroleum exploration is moving from the Norwegian Continental Shelf (NCS) at water depths of 200 - 400 m to the continental slope areas with depths from 500 to more than 2000 m. The offshore industry in Norway has instituted a joint meteorological and oceanographical (Metocean) project within the Norwegian Deepwater Programme in connection with opening of new licenses in deep waters off Mid-Norway. The metocean conditions of these areas are generally more extreme that at the NCS because of the greater exposure to the Atlantic Ocean and the Norwegian Sea. One of the aims of the metocean project is to obtain knowledge about current conditions required for design and operation of floating structures. The main advantage of satellite altimeter data is the capability of synoptic observations over large areas. When these synoptic observations are coordinated with in situ wind, wave and current measurements optimal data sets can be established to characterize meteorological, and oceanographical conditions over large ocean areas. Satellite data will not replace use of traditional measurements from current moorings but serve as an important supplement and contribute to more cost-effective use of expensive moorings.
