Welcome to the 25th ERVO Annual Meeting.

The 25th European Research Vessel Operators (ERVO) meeting is hosted by the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences (SLU) and the University of Gothenburg (UGOT) in Stockholm from 12th -14th June 2023.

ERVO meetings address common issues/questions that affect research vessel operators for the purpose of identifying solutions for improving services to the scientific community and developing best practice in the operation of Research Vessels. Members present their National Reports on activities, including any future plans for acquisitions/upgrades.

Presentations on new vessel builds are invited and a number of special topics is discussed at each meeting.

The ERVO Meetings provide an opportunity for RV Managers to exchange information on their national fleets, highlighting trends in the requirements for sea-going vessels and new technological developments for R.V. operations.

Important notice, the train traffic to and from Arlanda have resumed but at a reduced frequency..
