The Deep Ocean Exploration and Research Story

How we started

Established in 1992 as a consulting and field support firm, today it includes full engineering and manufacturing capabilities. These range from full ground up ROV and Submersible builds to complex shipboard systems integrations. Making a difference is a core value for DOER. To that end, the Deep Ocean Explore Store @DOER Marine was opened during the pandemic at a time when people were eager to explore closer to home. Since that time, the community has come to rely on this public facing space as a resource for ocean education and dive training. The core business continues to grow with clients that include many universities, private vessel owners, first responders, commercial diving firms, nonprofits, film makers, and governments. The company has been recognized with innovation awards from the East Bay EDA and Wings Worldtrust.

Where we're going

Our mission extends beyond technological innovation to encompass a profound respect for the marine environment, emphasizing responsible exploration and resource management. Through collaboration, integrity, and a passion for the underwater world, DOER Marine aims to contribute to the global understanding of aquatic ecosystems, promote environmental conservation, and support industries seeking to responsibly harness the vast potential of underwater resources. We envision a future where our submersibles play a pivotal role in advancing scientific knowledge, preserving marine biodiversity, and fostering sustainable development beneath the surface of our planet.

Our process

We have
an effective design process

By using a time tested process of setting our clients first, we can discover, design, prototype, finalize designs, and execute vehicles and services that meet the needs of all our clients.

Get in touch
01

Disvovery

Our first step is to meet with our clients to get an understanding of their needs. Whether they need help with manufacturing, consulting services, or vehicle work, we use this time to gather the necessary information to get the job done.

02

Design

Using the information that we've gathered we begin to design the right kind of services, support, or vehicle. All of our designs meet the highest thresholds of quality and have feedback from our client.

03

Prototyping

Once a design is created, we prototype it to find any flaws that may affect the performance of our products. Often times we find that taking the time to prototype before building ends in lower costs.

04

Finalize Design

After testing a prototyping is done, we come back to the design and finalize it with all of the learnings that we have uncovered. All builds are unique and we always love learning from the challenges we face with every new build.

05

Execute

Turning over a completed project is one of our favorite parts of our process. As a sustainability focused company, we take pride in knowing that all of our products are helping to create awareness of the ocean and the deep.
