This fisheries research vessel was commissioned in 1996.

The primarily fisheries-based missions are :

• population ecology,
• assessment of fished species,
• study of resource distribution over time and space,
• fishery and product processing techniques.

The ship carries out other types of missions:

• physical oceanography,
• occasional deployment of the ROV Victor 6000.

The Thalassa was built at the "Manche Industrie Marine" shipyards (Dieppe) - LEROUX ET LOTZ NAVAL.
