We serve commercial, government, and defense customers with assets in the marine environment around the globe.
Our Vision
To be the leading provider of innovative and effective solutions for the challenges of working in the underwater environment.
Engineering Support
Throughout the past two decades of steady innovation and expansion, all of Phoenix’s service lines have been supported by in-house engineering, consisting of skilled electrical, mechanical, ocean, and marine engineers, and first-rate CAD designers. Our dedicated staff provides comprehensive project support, including Front End Engineering Design/Development (FEED) studies, research and development, 3D modeling, and operational support of military and commercial projects.
Noteworthy Projects
Phoenix has performed emergent repairs to damaged U.S. Navy submarines, surface combatants, transport ships, and commercial ships in dozens of international and U.S. ports. We have also had the opportunity to be involved in several high-profile assignments, including searching for, and in some cases recovering, components of Air France Flight 447, Malaysian Airlines Flight 370 (MH 370), the space shuttle Columbia, and the SS El Faro. We have made several dives to and into the wreck of the RMS TITANIC and searched the remote Pacific Ocean for remnants of Amelia Earhart’s plane.
The Best is Yet to Come
In the past two decades, Phoenix has grown from a waterborne ship repair company into a diversified and internationally respected underwater services provider, active in undersea markets worldwide and providing manned and unmanned underwater operations and engineering solutions to solve our customers’ problems. And we are just getting started.
