Vision
To be the premier subsea engineering research institute focused on discovering safe and reliable ultra deepwater solutions for enabling and increasing offshore oil and gas recovery.
Mission Statement
Build a synergistic academic-industry research partnership advancing subsea engineering and graduate student education with an emphasis on technology transfer to industry.
Values
Develop engineers that understand multi-scale multi-physics modeling and intelligent systems within a multi-disciplinary curriculum to produce environmentally protective subsea oil and gas systems.
Research Goals
Integrate a broad range of engineering research programs applicable to subsea engineering with full-scale and near full-scale testing laboratories located at each university campus- Establish international subsea research facilities available to the Alliance Partners
- Perform propriety research under the International Subsea Engineering Research Institute
- Perform pre-competitive research among the Alliance partners
- Build qualification and testing facilities coupled to workforce development
