UNDERWATER MINING

Our underwater mining Portfolio

Depthforge Trident plays a vital role in advancing underwater mining operations, where precise equipment deployment, structural stability, and environmental care are critical to extracting seabed resources safely and efficiently.

Clarion-Clipperton Zone – Pacific Ocean (International Waters)

Subsea exploration and ROV deployment for polymetallic nodule harvesting. Depthforge Trident supported pilot trials by deploying survey-class ROVs, positioning sensor arrays, and assisting in sediment impact monitoring.

Cook Islands Exclusive Economic Zone – South Pacific

Technical assistance in early-stage manganese nodule prospecting. Our team provided seabed sampling equipment integration and structural testing of collector modules under high-pressure environments.

Papua New Guinea – Solwara 1 Project (Bismarck Sea)

ROV support and riser installation for deep-sea hydrothermal vent mining. We contributed subsea systems integration and flexible pipe stabilization for mineral lift systems operating at over 1,500 meters depth.

Red Sea Deep Trench – Between Saudi Arabia & Sudan

Support for SMS (seafloor massive sulfide) mineral exploration. Our subsea specialists helped position underwater drill systems and managed real-time data logging of mineral concentrations in extreme salinity conditions.

Mid-Atlantic Ridge – Azores Sector (Portugal)

ROV-based visual inspection and structural reinforcement for trial mining. We assisted European researchers with modular equipment stabilization and thermal vent monitoring to support environmentally safe recovery.

Bay of Plenty – New Zealand

Support for iron sand mining through sediment containment and equipment deployment. Depthforge Trident managed precision installation of sediment curtains, cutter suction hoses, and real-time monitoring systems to protect marine ecosystems.
