The majority of commercial diving done in the world is done in the Gulf of Mexico. This is the very reason why The Ocean Corporation chose to locate its training facilities in Houston, Texas way back in 1969. Many major commercial diving
companies are located within 300 miles of our front door!.

Exciting Employment Opportunities

Houston is the place to be for those wanting to work offshore. Commercial divers are vital to offshore production. They build the oil platforms and pipelines deep below the ocean surface. They also perform all aspects of subsurface inspections and repairs on these structures.

Inland Diving

Many Ocean Corp graduates choose to work offshore but, there is a wide variety of diving opportunities available inland for trained commercial divers as well. Divers routinely perform inspections, repairs and support services for a variety
of inland diving projects including: Nuclear Plants, Bridges, Municipal Waste Water Facilities, Dams, Ship Harbors, Ports, Water Towers, Resorts and Cruise Lines, Aquariums, And many more!
