We aim to <strong>reduce the number of collisions<\/strong> between marine megafauna and ships by using statistical modelling to cross species distribution data with ship routes. We consider the characteristics of both species (e.g. size, swimming speed and immersion time) and ships (e.g. speed polars and size), and use this information to produce meteorological routings and estimate the probability of encountering animals. In high-fidelity zones, where animal data is recorded, we can <strong>propose exclusion zones<\/strong> to avoid areas of concentration and assess their effectiveness. We collaborate with international universities to refine these zones according to the temporality of events. Share the Ocean&rsquo;s ultimate goal is to extend its expertise to the entire maritime transport sector in order to reduce collisions with marine megafauna on a global scale.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This programme is addressed to <strong>all users of the sea<\/strong>. In order to preserve marine biodiversity while ensuring the <strong>safety<\/strong> of ships and passengers, we need to r<strong>ethink our maritime practices<\/strong> by routing ships in a <strong>more responsible and ecological way<\/strong>. This will help us to <strong>perpetuate<\/strong> our maritime activities.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=\u00a0\u00bb1_2,1_2&Prime; _builder_version=\u00a0\u00bb4.23.4&Prime; _module_preset=\u00a0\u00bbdefault\u00a0\u00bb custom_margin=\u00a0\u00bb-14px|auto|-14px|auto||\u00a0\u00bb custom_padding=\u00a0\u00bb13px||11px|||\u00a0\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00a0\u00bb{}\u00a0\u00bb][et_pb_column type=\u00a0\u00bb1_2&Prime; _builder_version=\u00a0\u00bb4.23.4&Prime; _module_preset=\u00a0\u00bbdefault\u00a0\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00a0\u00bb{}\u00a0\u00bb][et_pb_image src=\u00a0\u00bbhttps:\/\/sharetheocean.earth\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/AUCB_Seb-scaled.jpg\u00a0\u00bb title_text=\u00a0\u00bbAUCB_Seb\u00a0\u00bb align=\u00a0\u00bbcenter\u00a0\u00bb _builder_version=\u00a0\u00bb4.23.4&Prime; _module_preset=\u00a0\u00bbdefault\u00a0\u00bb height=\u00a0\u00bb339px\u00a0\u00bb custom_padding=\u00a0\u00bb||2px|||\u00a0\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00a0\u00bb{}\u00a0\u00bb][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=\u00a0\u00bb4.23.4&Prime; _module_preset=\u00a0\u00bbdefault\u00a0\u00bb min_height=\u00a0\u00bb25.8px\u00a0\u00bb custom_margin=\u00a0\u00bb-32px|2px|-1px|||\u00a0\u00bb custom_padding=\u00a0\u00bb0px|0px||0px||\u00a0\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00a0\u00bb{}\u00a0\u00bb]<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\">Photo credit: S.
