Ocean Space Centre

Utvidelse av Marintek på Tyholt planlegges ferdigstilt før 2020. Først var planen å bygge ett nytt og stort senter på Nyhavna til en prislapp på
rundt 10 mrd. kroner. Da det ble klart at det ikke ønskes å satse så stort på et nytt senter har Marintek og Sintef nå flyttet planene til en utvidelse
av dagens senter på Tyholt. Det er pr idag utarbeidet to alternativer for en utvidelse.

Alternativ A: Liten utvidelse


Alternativ B: Større utvidelse

About the project
The future of ocean research. The world is in need of a international ocean research hub, "a CERN withinn ocean research". Norway has long been
in lead in ocean research and to continue leading they are now making plans of a 10 billion N.Kroner (1.7 billion USD / 1.25 billion Euros) centre in
the harbour of Trondheim. The hub will have 1000 employees/researches and a campus with 500 students.

The project is divided into two phases, Ocean Space Centre and Ocean Space Lab. Ocean Space Centre, which is the main facility will be located
at Nyhavna harbour. This 44 100m2 large building will room visitor centres, arctic lab, ocean current lab, ocean environment lab, construction lab,
energy lab, aquarium, fish lab and several different research pools and water slides for wave and shipping research.

Ocean Space Lab (Havromslaboratoriet) is a other phase of the Ocean Space Centre. Ocean Space Lab will be a 16 200m2 large research facility
built up on a underwater bank half a kilometer offshore Trondheim harbor. The location of the lab, on the edge of a steep sea-bed drop, will allow
scientists to recreate the conditions of a 3000m deep ocean basin.

The structure will be 120x135m wide and 30m tall, where 10m will be above sea level. It will be inhabitable with flats where students and
researchers can live during the week. The building will also be open to the public, so that school students, tourists and others interested in
oceanography can explore parts of the labs.

COMPANIES + LINKS | This is still a concept developed by SINTEF. Snøhetta is the architect of the concept proposal that was published in early
2010. MIR visualized the renderings for the project. View the project on its Official Website. Ocean Space Centre in Skyscrapercity's world forum.
