Marine Institute’s faculty, staff and students extend their condolences to the family, friends and colleagues of the five people who were lost on the Titan submersible
Their thoughts and appreciation also go to the crew of the MV Polar Prince and the international maritime community, who brought their considerable expertise and equipment to bear in the search operations off our coast.
“Within that community, many of our staff and alumni were quietly doing what we do in these situations, lending their support and expertise,” says Dr. Paul Brett, vice-president (Marine Institute). “Memorial also provided what equipment it had to the search.”
OceanGate Expeditions came to the Marine Institute this spring to avail of its workshop, storage and wharf facilities as they prepared for their latest expedition.
“As with many of our industrial partners who avail of our facilities, we interacted daily with OceanGate personnel and came to know them as they worked on the submersible, and witnessed their dedication to ocean exploration,” says Dr. Brett.
No Marine Institute employees or students travelled onboard the Titan. However, one student accepted summer employment with OceanGate and was aboard the support ship, MV Polar Prince, which initially launched the Titan.
“We have spoken with the student and are offering them support at this time,” says Dr. Brett.
