We have increased customer production by more than

15 MILLION BARRELS

 

You will benefit from tailored, project-specific solutions built from our suite of products and services, including vessels, engineering analysis, intervention tooling, remotely operated vehicles (ROVs), and project management expertise.

We restore production from your well faster and more cost-effectively by Connecting What's Needed with What's Next™.

Our production enhancement experts deliver complete project management, engineering support, and offshore service to ensure fully integrated, successful stimulation operations.

We help maximize flow and protect your subsea assets by safely and effectively remediating production-reducing damage mechanisms. We work with you to develop the best stimulation plan for your reservoir—from front-end engineering and design (FEED) studies to the development of an operability matrix.
Even in the deepest waters, we remediate migrated sand and remove scale, wax, paraffins, and asphaltene formations to restore a positive productivity index. We have successfully stimulated subsea wells in up to 6,700 ft (2,042 m) of water.

Innovative Tooling Solutions

Our industry-leading portfolio of subsea intervention tooling—including our proprietary well stimulation tool (WST) and rapid access tool (RAT)—provide reliable access to your wellbore. Unlike traditional rig-based well stimulation systems, ours does not require the use of a blowout preventer (BOP)—we ensure safe operations by providing a double barrier for well control.
Our WST features redundant disconnect systems with spill-proof connections—an emergency quick disconnect (EQD) system ensures that the vessel can detach from the wellhead with zero leakage. Our EQD can be actuated on-command from surface, or automatically subsea in case of unexpected pressure increases.

Rapid, Rigless Deployment

By using an Oceaneering vessel or a vessel of opportunity, we reduce overall project costs by as much as 50%, and deliver solutions when and where you need them. The relative ease with which we can mobilize our systems is especially significant during multi-well stimulation campaigns.
Our MSVs are ready to solve a range of challenges with onboard ROVs, subsea heave-compensated cranes, built-in chemical storage (5,000 bbl), fire suppression, high-horsepower pumping, dual open water coiled tubing risers, and flying leads.

Improved Subsea Flow Performance

We achieve pumping rates up to 15,000 psi at 20 bbl/min, and can address multiple treatment stages. We ensure that, when there is not sufficient room to store pre-mixed chemicals onboard, we are prepared to mix chemicals on the fly. We keep your operations on schedule and within the ideal weather window.
With seamless topside pumping integration and remote control of your well, we provide the most effective stimulation possible. We ensure that you have the access you need to properly dose acids, solvents, or diverters—in a matter of hours or days, not weeks.

We think differently, creatively, and smarter.

Company page Since our founding in the early 1960s, Oceaneering has expanded and grown globally to service several industries such as the offshore energy industry, defense, entertainment, material handling, aerospace, science, and renewable energy industries. In 1964, Mike Hughes and Johnny Johnson formed a Gulf of Mexico diving company called World Wide Divers. The company grew in response to increasing demand for their services and in 1969 merged with two other diving companies to form Oceaneering International, Inc. To solve the toughest challenges, we do things differently, creatively, and smarter. As your trusted partner, our unmatched experience and truly innovative portfolio of technologies and solutions give us the flexibility to adapt and evolve, regardless of market conditions. Our mission is to solve the unsolvable. We thrive by creating industry-changing technically creative solutions for the most complex operational challenges under water, on land, and in space. Our five core values establish a common culture and demonstrate what is most important for us as a company. Since the beginning, the company has transformed from a small regional diving company into a global provider of engineered products and services. Today, we develop products and services for use throughout the lifecycle of an offshore oilfield, from drilling to decommissioning. We operate the world's premier fleet of work class ROVs. Additionally, we are a leader in offshore oilfield maintenance services, umbilicals, subsea hardware, and tooling. We also serve the aerospace, defense, and theme park industries. Underpinning everything we do, safety is not only the foundation of our core values, but it is vital to our unmatched performance record and company culture. The industries we serve are as diverse as they are complex. Whether we are engineering deepwater umbilicals or developing robotics for aerospace applications, the safety and health of our employees, vendors, and customers is an integral part of our day-to-day business. If we are working, then our responsibility is to be working safely. Since our inception in 1964, we have placed a high value on employee safety—from diving services and subsea inspection to vessel-based installation operations. We have and will continue to evolve not only our health, safety, and environmental (HSE) processes, but those of the industries in which we work. Although we have been fatality-free since 1999, our HSE journey goes beyond statistics. As our portfolio of services has grown, we have continued to prioritize and advance our approach to HSE.
