The DEEP Submarine range dramatically increases access to the ocean by enabling deeper exploration.
Launching from Sentinel as their subsea base, operating down to full ocean depth, DEEP submarines give unparalleled reach to research and science.
To achieve standardisation their design is purposefully modular, and every submarine adheres strictly to the DEEP Modularity Architecture.
The cost reduction and scaling that modularity provides means more of us than ever before can experience the capability for uninhibited exploration and discovery that subs afford.
Opening this world of unexplored potential will significantly expand our knowledge, tackle global challenges, promote sustainable practices, and unlock valuable benefits for society.
DEEP Modularity Architecture
To achieve standardisation, DEEP’s subs designs are purposefully modular, and every submarine adheres strictly to the DEEP Modularity Architecture. Modularity means more of us than ever before can gain first-hand experience of the world’s ocean biomes.
DEEP’s Submarine Range
REVEALED SOON
The beauty of the DEEP modularity architecture, of course, is the ability to design virtually every conceivable submarine without having to design a new Class of submersible.
DEEP is working on a range of pre-configured submarines and will announce these in the coming months.
Ownership Options
Key to opening access to the oceans is the provision of innovative ownership options.
Third-party Subs + Sentinel integration
DEEP’s intention is to open up the architecture of Sentinel to reputable manufacturers of third-party certified submarines and submersibles.
With Made for Sentinel status, manufacturers will receive access to technical drawings, engineering resource, parts and components that will help ensure their products interface with Sentinel while offering users the assurance of aligned technical and safety standards.
Accredited submersibles and submarines will be able to deploy and recover personnel from the Sentinel, at either one atmosphere or ambient pressure.
Ideally, they would do so while minimising the use of environmentally- and financially-costly Dive Support Vessels.
