By gaining a deeper knowledge of the ocean, we help every living thing on our planet flourish

Science and Research

Our planet is constantly changing and climate change poses a big threat to society.

With years of experience, innovative technology and some of the world’s leading scientists, we take on the challenge of understanding the complexity of our oceans, the Earth system and biosphere.

Technology

The NOC is a pioneer of ocean technology – pushing the boundaries of endurance and capability with every deployment. Through decades of hard-won experience at the forefront of ocean measure­ment, the lessons learned carry forward to each generation of ocean-going platforms and sensors.

Public Benefit

The NOC contributes to the advancement of scientific knowledge of the ocean, as part of a global endeavour. This is both a public good in its own right, which can lead to applications that result directly or indirectly in public benefit.
