ADVANCED OCEAN TECHNOLOGY PROGRAM FOLLOW ON

The Advanced Ocean Technology Program (AOTP) Division of NAVFAC EXWC conducts research and develops ocean engineering and naval architecture solutions in support of design, installation, operation and maintenance of both fixed ocean systems and towed systems. This work is conducted on both EXWC vessels and ships of opportunity.

NAVFAC EXWC?s Ocean Department (OC) conducts research, development, test and evaluation in specific areas to include the study of the physical characteristics and the design and construction of buoyant structures; including construction and operation of mechanical equipment of these structures; ocean engineering associated with fixed structures on the seafloor; ocean cable infrastructure; underwater excavation, drilling, tunneling, cable shore landing, and earth moving; equipment and tools for underwater construction; ocean current measurement systems and other engineering sensors; underwater power sources; electrical power distribution equipment and transmission systems; and surface and underwater load handling systems.

NAVFAC EXWC is also tasked with applying these technologies to assist other government agencies in ocean platform support, remotely operated vehicle (ROV) operations and search, location, and recovery operations for a wide spectrum of purposes. To increase the effectiveness of underwater work conducted by the United States military, NAVFAC EXWC is also actively engaged in an integrated program of technology and equipment development with the central goal to provide improved tools and work techniques.
