"MS 'H.U. Sverdrup II' is owned by the Norwegian Defence Research Establishment, but is operated by the Institute of Marine Research's vessel department.

The vessel is essentially a floating, 55-meter-long measuring instrument. At slow speeds, it meticulously surveys Norwegian sea areas. The vessel has around 320 expedition days each year.
