The Coast Guard’s report on the Titan submersible disaster, which killed five on the way to the Titanic off Canada in 2023, has found the company’s safety procedures “critically flawed.” The report found that the core of the failures inside the company came down to “glaring disparities” between their safety protocols and actual practices. The submersible disaster has led to lawsuits and calls for tighter regulation of the developing private deep sea expedition industry. Jason Neubauer, with the Marine Board of Investigation, said the findings will help prevent future tragedies and emphasize the need for stronger oversight and clear options for operators exploring new concepts outside of the existing regulatory framework. OceanGate’s culture of downplaying, ignoring, and falsifying key safety information was cited as a contributing factor.
