Nauticus Robotics, Inc., a leading innovator in autonomous subsea robotics and software, announced that its flagship underwater vehicle, Aquanaut Mark 2, reached a new depth record of 2,300 meters underwater, 240 kilometers off the coast of Louisiana.

“I am pleased to report that our vehicle has reached unprecedented ultra-deepwater depths without the need for a tether. Reaching this new depth is an exciting milestone, and we have obtained significant data on both Aquanaut and TooKITT from these tests—particularly regarding acoustic communication challenges in ultra-deep water. Our Autonomous Solutions team will spend the necessary time to analyze the new data and apply this information to optimize performance for our ultra-deep applications and across our portfolio,” said Daniel Dehart, Nauticus’ VP of Field Operations.

Nauticus Robotics’ CEO John Gibson commented, “The more time we spend untethered in the water, the greater our operational and technical lead expands in the market. I want to thank our employees for their dedication to innovating for our customers and their offshore projects. I’m proud that our team is constantly finding solutions to strengthen our capabilities underwater and enhance revenue opportunities for projects at these depths.”
