Creating a
Connected Ocean
We are building a global smart ocean platform. The environment includes multiple subsea habitats, which are laboratories where researchers and others can live and work 24/7 underwater, ocean monitoring systems, blue carbon management tools, and a robust media business to amplify ocean storytelling in multiple jurisdictions.
Our core project is PROTEUS™, the world’s first modular, multipurpose undersea habitat. A high-tech home, research and development center, PROTEUS™ will revolutionize ocean science, discovery, exploration and adventure, driving global engagement while accelerating planetary solutions. Imagine a submerged laboratory for scientists, researchers, astronauts, academics, data scientists, filmmakers, aquanauts, engineers and entrepreneurs, along with a multi-media plan for robust storytelling on a variety of platforms.

A NEW ERA OF OCEAN DISCOVERY
The Cousteau
Legacy Continues
Fabien Cousteau was inspired by his grandfather’s legacy and a lifetime of exploration to establish Proteus Ocean Group, which is innovating much-needed solutions across various business sectors to drive smart ocean technology and storytelling.
