Recently,Institute of Deep Sea Science and Engineering, Chinese Academy of SciencesIndonesiaThe National Research and Innovation Agency has successfully completed a one month joint scientific expedition in the Java Trench. During this period, researchers from both countries utilizedStriverThe manned submersible successfully dives from all depths of the seaseven thousand one hundred and seventy-eightriceSet a new record for deep-sea diving in Indonesia.

Minister of Ocean and Investment Coordination of IndonesiaLuhuteexpressThis joint scientific expedition has opened a new chapter for the two countries to strengthen maritime cooperation. We hope that the two countries can take this opportunity to further deepen and expand scientific and technological cooperation, and cultivate more outstanding scientists and engineers for Indonesia.

one thousand nine hundred and eighty-sixYear,China's first manned submersible——7103 lifeboat has been successfully developed. Although it can only dive 300 meters and has a speed of only four knots, it was also the most advanced rescue manned submersible of that era.

July 2010,China's first independently designed and integrated manned submersibleThe Jiaolong submersible reached a depth of 3759 meters, making China the fifth country in the world to master manned deep diving technology at a depth of 3500 meters, following the United States, France, Russia, and Japan.

In June 2016, the Jiaolong 7000 meter manned submersible completed its ultimate challenge and ultimately held the record at 7062 meters. The Jiaolong also has world-class hovering and autonomous driving functions, which can resist the interference of ocean currents and work steadily at the bottom of the sea.

On November 10, 2020,StriverSuccessfully settled in the Mariana Trench at a depth often thousand nine hundred and ninericeCreate a new record for manned deep-sea diving in China.

The deep underwater world of the Java Trench in the Indonesian waters has always attracted the attention of scientists. In this joint scientific expedition, researchers from both countries worked together to leverage theThe "Struggler" manned submersible has successfully descended to a depth of 7178 meters, which not only demonstrates China's advanced level of deep-sea technology, but also writes a new chapter for Indonesia's deep-sea exploration.

sinceSince setting a new record for manned deep-sea diving in China,The "Struggler" has become a business card for China's deep-sea scientific research. The outstanding performance in the Java Trench once again proves its outstanding performance and reliability in deep-sea exploration, laying a solid foundation for the further development of deep-sea scientific research in China.

Lu Kang, China's ambassador to Indonesia, said that in recent years, China Indonesia marine science and technology cooperation has been deepening, and he hoped that scientists from both countries could achieve more high-quality scientific research achievements in the future, contributing to building a blue marine economy and promoting sustainable development.
