Advanced Ocean Systems

Advanced Ocean Systems, known as AOS, develops and integrates systems that bring autonomous systems and intelligent robotics into at-sea operations for the defense, offshore energy, seabed infrastructure and scientific markets. The company works as a full-service provider able to take projects from cradle to grave, covering custom engineering, development, manufacturing, integration and sustainment for the kind of complex marine work those markets demand. Its scope takes in standard products, rental systems and custom solutions, with a consistent bias toward practical, cost-efficient systems that can be deployed in real operating environments. The capability set spans uncrewed vehicles and marine robotics, subsea projects and systems integration, and intelligent deck equipment and custom deployment systems. AOS operates through affiliated businesses, among them SeaRobotics, Ocean Specialists and Okeanus Science and Technology, which together broaden its portfolio of ocean systems, marine expertise and project services. Through those businesses it supports offshore operators with personnel, programs and integrated systems intended to optimize critical at-sea operations. Its work runs from rapid prototyping through full-scale development, and it covers both surface and subsea applications, reaching from coastal water integration services to deep-sea unmanned technology development. The company works from facilities in Houston, Texas, and Stuart, Florida. Within the broader business, AOS serves customers that need turnkey integrated solutions from seabed to surface. It supports commercial, government and defense customers, among them naval and offshore users, and it takes on marine autonomy, remote operations and subsea deployment challenges for them. The company operates as a small business, and its distinctive feature comes from the combination of engineering, fabrication, testing and field-proven deployment capabilities across multiple marine domains, backed by long experience in marine engineering, uncrewed systems and subsea project management. That mix lets the same organisation carry a piece of equipment from the drawing board through fabrication and testing and out into the water, whether the end customer needs a standard product, a rental unit or a system built for one job.
