PIRATA T-Flex Implementation
Eight (8) T-Flex moorings were deployed alongside ATLAS moorings in RAMA and PIRATA between March 2011 and December 2015. The first stand-alone T-Flex was deployed in August, 2015 at 4S 81E in the Indian Ocean. Other stand-alone deployments have followed since then in both the Atlantic and Indian Oceans.
