Navigate the deep-water frontiers of the North Atlantic with the Official CHS Chart 4049. This critical offshore chart provides comprehensive coverage of the Northern Portion of the Grand Bank to the Flemish Pass, including the strategic waters off the eastern coast of Newfoundland.
As a genuine Canadian Hydrographic Service (CHS) publication, Chart 4049 is an indispensable tool for the offshore oil and gas industry, international shipping, and deep-sea fishing fleets. This region is a major maritime crossroads where the continental shelf drops off into the depths of the Flemish Pass. Navigating this area requires the precise bathymetry and hydrographic data provided by this chart to account for the unique seafloor topography, powerful currents, and the presence of offshore installations.
Key Features include:
Deep-Water Frontier Coverage: Detailed mapping of the Northern Grand Banks, the Flemish Cap approaches, and the Flemish Pass.
Official Data Standards: Compiled by the CHS to meet all regulatory safety and carriage requirements for offshore transit.
Hydrographic Precision: Features accurate soundings for the shelf break and deep-water channels at a scale of 1:400,000.
Navigational Hazards & Safety: Clearly marks offshore platforms, undersea cables, and the environmental boundaries of the Newfoundland shelf.
